    I think the danger she is facing now is charges in Nigeria for criminal conspiracy and forgery. Escaping criminal prosecution is not grounds for asylum under any internationally recognised rules of asylum. Especially for deeds carried out after she left Nigeria.

    Izevbekhai has taken this and every blinkered liberal sop in Ireland to the doors of the high court based on fraudulant claims, then flinched. The result is she has discredited all of her followers who have blindly and without question thrown their reputations behind this woman.

    How many bodies who are supposed to be helping legitimate FGM suffers or asylum seekers have been damaged by this? And how many of the people they are supposed to be concerned about are now under the same pall of suspician that accompanies Izevbekhai?

    This is not the first time a scammer has gone to the gates of the high court and bottled it, and done so with the full support of self appointed refugee advocates. Yet those self same advocates still refuse to admit the Irish system is fair, not matter how many times they themselves get taken in.

    I wonder are FG now going to withdraw their support for this fraudster? The state should proceed quickly and arrange for her deportation.

    I think you mean the ECHR, which is not an EU institution and therefore is superseded in Ireland where a conflict arises, by the Irish Constitution. Imho, the ECHR will probably not find in her favour now, but is delaying its decision as a kind of judicial-activism on behalf of the open-doors brigade, which is well represented in the judicial-class of Western Europe. However, this issue once again brings up the issue of the Charter of Fundamental Rights, which really would give the ECJ jurisdiction over asylum-cases like this if we vote for Lisbon. The Charter, imho, in connection with this and other issues like abortion, capital-punishment etc. constitutes the 'silver-bullet' that will kill the Lisbon Treaty.

Imho, we need to get away from costly ad-hoc processing and much to more automaticity for the top-countries of origin of bogus asylum-cases. We need to go down the road of most other Western EU states in terms of humane detention during asylum-applications, to prevent applicants doing a runner to evade deportation as Garda figures show 6000 have done. The asylum appeals system takes far too long, and is being exploited by elements of the legal-profession for profit at the taxpayers' expense via free legal-aid. A whole industry has grown up around asylum, including the legal-industry (of which many TDs and Senators are part), quangos and NGOs, and that is important to understanding why certain people support the status-quo.
    This is all academic and you seem to have difficulty grasping the basic fact that this family are here and they claimm that if deported they will be harmed.

    Yes thwey do claim it. But we know that several courts have found thweir clim that they will be harmed to be not valid. And we know that she has lied, and seemingly committed fraud, so what value can we place on her claims.?

    Will they also withdraw their support for the other fraudsters?

    The courts have examined the evidence and have found the claims, surely the danger issue would have been amongst them, to be without merit. It is not up to me whether they stay or are deported. The decision seems to have already been made.

    The courts merely test the claim against the existing law. The fact remains that if deported this family may very well come to harm and accordingly to do that would be wrong regardless of a what the law states.

    Their mother claims as such, and she has been exposed as using forged-documents. A Nigerian doctor claims to have been solicited by her to provide a forged death-certificate. As such, her credibility is in tatters and she must be deported. Nothing she says from now on can have any credibility. I think you'll find that in any other court case, revelations that a defendent or a witness had used forged-documents would likely cause a judge to order the jury to disregard their evidence or render it inadmissible.

    And the evidence?

    That is not a fact. It is a claim and in light of recent events, an increasingly dubious one.

    The issue is that the sourt rules on probabilty, not certainty. The certainty that you and the others here howling for deportation express is bogus. You simply do not have that certainty but are willing to 'take a chance' that there is no harm awaiting this family should e they be deported. I am not prepared to take such a chance and I believer it would be profoundly wrong for anyone else to do so.
