FACTS AND PROCEDURE

The applicant, N.S.K., was born in 1986. He was represented by Mr S. Robinson of Duncan Lewis Solicitors, a firm of solicitors based in London.

The applicant complained under Article 3 of the Convention about his possible removal to Rwanda pursuant to the asylum partnership arrangement between the United Kingdom Government and the Rwandan Government. This complaint was communicated to the United Kingdom Government on 5 April 2023.

On 2 September 2024 the applicant informed the Registry that he wanted to withdraw the application to the Court as he had been afforded access to the United Kingdom asylum system.

THE LAW

In the light of the foregoing, the Court concludes that the applicant may be regarded as no longer wishing to pursue the application (Article 37 § 1 (a) of the Convention). Furthermore, in accordance with Article 37 § 1 in fine , the Court finds no special circumstances regarding respect for human rights as defined in the Convention and the Protocols thereto which require the continued examination of the application.

Accordingly, the case should be struck out of the list.

For these reasons, the Court, unanimously,

Decides to strike the application out of its list of cases.

Done in English and notified in writing on 24 October 2024.
