High Court denies Somalian man's request to halt deportation to France despite claims of fleeing Al Shabaab.

The High Court of Ireland has refused an injunction to halt the deportation of a Somali man to France. The man had sought protection in Ireland, claiming he was fleeing the Somali Islamic militant group Al-Shabab, which killed his father and two brothers. After being denied protection in Germany, he arrived in Ireland in August 2022 and sought protection there. The court ruled that the man could continue his judicial review challenge from France, and there is a mechanism for his return to Ireland if he is successful in the case.
