'Willful emigration' flies dozens of asylum seekers from Israel
None
Dozens of Eritrean asylum seekers and infiltrators were flown out of Israel since last week through a "willful emigration" procedure, which was approved by the Attorney General. The procedure is meant to find out whether someone held in custody is interested in returning to his country of origin
The procedure was fiercely criticized by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) that claimed that "free will" cannot be applied to imprisoned asylum seekers." (Omri Efraim)
