Following the Berlin Administrative Court's ruling on border rejections, Juso Chair Philipp Turner has urged Federal Chancellor Friedrich Merz to intervene, pushing for Minister Alexander Dobrindt to alter his stance on the matter. Turner, speaking to the Funke Media Group, asserted that Dobrindt must abide by the court's decision, terming the ruling "a clear confirmation of the illegality of border rejections."
Echoing this sentiment, Turner deemed Dobrindt's continued insistence on rejections as "completely unacceptable" and a "legally flawed instruction to federal police officials, openly encouraging them to break the law." If Dobrindt fails to change course, Turner called on Merz to take action, stating, "The Federal Chancellor must step in to rectify the situation; there is no legal basis for border rejections."
The Berlin Administrative Court's decision on Monday, in favor of three Somali refugees who opposed their rejection without a Dublin procedure, declared such rejections as illegal.
While further details on any potential legal disputes between Turner, Merz, and Dobrindt are scarce, it's worth noting that after Merz's ascension as Chancellor, Dobrindt announced plans to increase the number of police officers at the German border[2]. Gaining more insights on the nuances of this specific legal dispute might require consultation with additional sources or news outlets.
