Kernrechtsfrage
Whether A.___ committed deception of the authorities under Art. 118 Abs. 1 AuG by pretending marital intent to obtain residence status.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The court found that A.___ concealed his true lack of marital intent and thereby obtained the residence permit through deception.
Extrahierte Begründung
The totality of indicia showed repeated lack of knowledge about his wife, contradictory statements, limited cohabitation, prior illegal entry, and two extramarital affairs. These factors proved intentional deception beyond reasonable doubt.
