Facts
- In a claim for judicial review of the decision to deport the applicants, the applicants said that their art. 3 ECHR rights had been infringed upon
Issue
- Could the deportation decision be reversed
Decision
- No
Reasoning
- While the court should follow the ECHR unless there are exceptional circumstances, in this case the claim failed on the facts; there was no reason why being tried ‘as an alien’ would invoke art. 3 (degrading treatment)
