During the RABIT deployment, the European Court of HumanRights found that conditions in Greek migrant detentioncenters were inhuman and degrading.
The court said Belgium violated its human rights obligationsby knowingly exposing an Afghan asylum seeker to suchtreatment when it transferred him back to Greece.
(M.S.S. v. Belgium and Greece)
Its a disturbing contradiction that at the same time that theEuropean Court of Human Rights was categorically ruling thatsending migrants to detention in Greece violated theirfundamental rights, Frontex, an EU executive agency, and borderguards from EU states were knowingly sending them there,director of Human Rights Watch, Bill Frelick, said.
