Ahmed v United Kingdom (App No 59727/13) [2017] All ER (D) 16 (Mar)
The European Court of Human Rights dismissed the applicant’s complaints that his immigration detention had been in breach of Art 5(1)(f) of the European Convention on Human Rights, as it had not been arbitrary. Further, his detention had not breached Art 34 of the Convention, as it had not been demonstrated that the United Kingdom authorities had been improperly seeking to dissuade or discourage the applicant from pursuing his application to the present court.
