Questão jurídica principal
Whether the settlement permit had lapsed under Art. 61(2) AuG due to absence from Switzerland and relocation of the center of life.
Decisão extraída
Yes. The court held that the permit lapsed because the appellant's overall circumstances showed that her center of life had moved to Turkey; short visits to Switzerland did not interrupt the lapse period.
Fundamentação extraída
Passport stamps, repeated long stays in Turkey, residence and health insurance there, Turkish pension income, lack of bank/post accounts in Switzerland, and the family and property situation collectively established a center of life abroad. The court treated the statutory lapse ground as absolute and mandatory.
