‘This case concerns the 1951 Geneva Convention on Refugees (‘the Refugee Convention’) and the protection against refoulement afforded to foreign criminals subject to deportation orders, who have previously been granted refugee status linked to the refugee status of a family member. The case raises issues of construction as to the definition of ‘refugee’ under Article 1A(2) and the true construction of the ‘cessation’ provision under Article 1C(5) of the Refugee Convention.’
