Kernrechtsfrage
Whether occasional overnight lodging of an undocumented person constitutes facilitation of illegal stay under Art. 116(1)(a) LEtr
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. Short, occasional overnight stays without providing a durable hiding place do not amount to facilitating illegal stay.
Extrahierte Begründung
The offence requires conduct that makes administrative intervention or enforcement against the foreigner more difficult. Mere sporadic accommodation for one or two nights, without continuous lodging or a cachette, does not restrict authorities' ability to act and lacks the requisite criminal character.
