Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the facilitated naturalization could be declared void under Art. 41 BüG for having been obtained by false statements or concealment of material facts.
Decisione estratta
Yes. The factual sequence gave rise to a presumption that the naturalization had been obtained by deception, and the applicant failed to rebut it.
Motivazione estratta
The couple separated shortly after naturalization and soon initiated divorce. Those circumstances supported the inference that no stable marital community existed when citizenship was granted. The applicant's counter-arguments and requested witness evidence did not convincingly explain the breakdown of the marriage.
