Question juridique clé
Whether the refusal to renew the residence permit was lawful despite the family-based entitlement under Art. 43 AuG and Art. 8 ECHR.
Solution extraite
The entitlement was extinguished because a ground for revocation under Art. 62 lit. b AuG existed and, after balancing the interests, removal from Switzerland was proportionate.
Motifs extraits
The drug-trafficking offence was serious, especially as over three kilograms of heroin were involved; recidivism risk and general prevention also weighed in favour of removal, while family and integration arguments did not outweigh the public interest.
