Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appellant could be expelled from Switzerland under Art. 10(1)(a) ANAG despite his serious convictions.
Decisione estratta
Although the offences were serious and public interest in expulsion was considerable, the total circumstances made expulsion disproportionate and inappropriate.
Motivazione estratta
The court balanced the severe but isolated crime series against the appellant's very long residence since childhood, strong family ties in Switzerland, weak links to the home country, integration, confession and remorse, and better resocialization prospects in Switzerland.
