Key legal question
Whether the settlement permit could be revoked for obtaining it by deception through concealment of the true marital situation.
Extracted holding
Yes. The court held that the permit was obtained in a rights-abusing manner by concealing that the first marriage was no longer genuinely maintained, so revocation was lawful.
Extracted reasoning
Based on the wife’s statements and the timeline, the court upheld the finding that at least from the engagement in 2007 the appellant no longer intended to continue the Swiss marriage; this constituted deceptive acquisition under the Aliens Act.
