Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the administrative expulsion based on a drug conviction was lawful and proportionate despite long residence and family life in Switzerland.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The expulsion was proportionate in light of the serious drug offence and the public interest in keeping him away from Switzerland.
Extrahierte Begründung
Art. 10(1)(a) ANAG was met by the final sentence. The court gave decisive weight to the seriousness of the drug trafficking offence, prior convictions, poor cooperation, and the strong public interest. Family life and the wife’s and child’s interests did not outweigh these considerations under Art. 8 ECHR and the proportionality test.
