Key legal question
Whether the settlement permit could be revoked under the Foreign Nationals Act despite more than 15 years of lawful residence.
Extracted holding
Yes. The statutory revocation grounds under Art. 63(2) AuG were met because he had received a long prison sentence and had seriously and repeatedly violated public order.
Extracted reasoning
The court accepted the prior convictions, especially the 4.5-year sentence, and held that the applicant's persistent offending showed he was neither willing nor able to respect Swiss law.
