Netherlands appeal court rules against repatriation of ISIS-linked Dutch woman, Danes establish task force to investigate
[Rudaw] A top appeal court in the Netherlands ruled on Tuesday against bringing an ISIS-linked Dutch national home from al-Hol camp, citing security concerns over repatriations.

The Hague Court of Appeal said it backs the judgement made in October 2020 for the woman, who holds both Dutch and Moroccan nationality and has both psychiatric and physical problems.

"It is clear to the court that [appellant] 's interest in repatriation is very important," the court said in a statement.

"Moreover, the court considers it plausible that the situation for [appellant] is even more difficult under the influence of her psychiatric and physical problems... from the WhatsApp messages she submitted, the image emerges of a confused woman who also has a physical disability and is therefore dependent on the certainly not self-evident willingness of other camp inmates to take her fate and provide her elementary care."

However,
women are made to be loved, not understood...
the appeal court agreed with the preliminary relief judge's claim that her situation was outweighed by national interests. The relief judge ruled that "although the interests on the part of [appellant] are very important, the interests on the side of the State are so important that the balancing of interests should be in the advantage of the State."
"Bitch is Krazy. And a burden on the State"
The Netherlands has resisted repatriating its nationals because of concerns over the security of both people who would be involved in the repatriation in "dangerous" northern Syria and the Netherlands as a whole.

The appeal court "is of the opinion that the State must have the freedom to decide on a case-by-case basis and on a "day-to-day" basis whether or not to deploy its officials in this way. In doing so, the State may always put the safety of the officials and other parties involved who would play a role in a possible repatriation of [appellant], which may mean that the State will only consider such a deployment if it is convinced that such a deployment can take place in a responsible manner for these parties."

There remain currently 110 Dutch adults in Syria who travelled to the country with "jihadist intentions" — 40 of them in camps and prisons in northeast Syria, according to data the Dutch interior ministry published on March 1.

Denmark considers repatriating ISIS-linked children from Rojava camps

[Rudaw] Denmark on Tuesday announced it has established a taskforce to assess the possibility of repatriating Danish children from camps in northeastern Syria (Rojava).

Denmark’s foreign ministry said the taskforce will reveal by May 15 whether Danish children can be repatriated without their parents "in a secure manner and within the framework of Denmark’s obligations to (international) conventions" and will take steps to prepare evacuations.

"As soon as the results of the task force are available, the government will take the initiative for renewed political consultations on the overall handling of the Danish children in the camps," it added.

The Danish government had previously stated that it would not accept children of ISIS fighters back into the country despite the dangerous conditions in the camps.

A total of 19 Danish children are currently held in the Kurdish-controlled Roj and al-Hol camps in Rojava, AFP reported on Tuesday.

A recent poll showed 49 percent of Danes were opposed to the repatriation of children up to 14 years old, according to AFP.

Denmark repatriated an injured child in June 2019.
