Risk of inhuman or degrading treatment: burden of allegation and duty to verify by the Court of appeal
✕
Summary
Risk of inhuman or degrading treatment: it is for the requested person to put forward elements and circumstances which the court of appeal must assess, including, where appropriate, by seeking supplementary information, in order to determine whether, in the specific case, the person concerned will, upon surrender, be subjected to inhuman or degrading treatment. therefore, the court of appeal cannot merely rely on unspecified information drawn from internet sources, nor can it dismiss as generic or evasive the replies provided by the bosnian governmental authority, which instead appear sufficiently detailed as regards the detention regime and its characteristics, the likely course of execution of the sentence, and the prison conditions that will be applied to the requested person in the facility to which they will be assigned.
