The Eighth Administrative Court of Appeal has granted the Russia citizen Ruslan Hakimov's appeal, better known in Ukraine as Aslan Hakimov, and annulled the decision of the Holyskyi District Court of Lviv regarding his forced expulsion from Ukraine. This was reported by MP Sofia Fedina, according to Hłatkom.
Thus, the decision of the Western Interregional Department of the State Migration Service to expel Hakimov also became invalid to the extent challenged by the man.
Hakimov is known for his help to the Armed Forces. After the start of the full-scale invasion, he worked on developing ground robotic systems and handed them over to the Ukrainian military.
Why Hakimov faced expulsion
The Migration Service demanded his forced expulsion due to problems with his documents and the legality of his stay in Ukraine. Earlier, the Holyskyi District Court of Lviv satisfied the DSM’s requests to detain him for identification and ensuring forced expulsion.
8 June The Eighth Administrative Court of Appeal, in another case, left this decision unchanged. Separately, in June the Holyskyi District Court 17 considered Hakimov’s claim directly against the DSM’s decision on forced expulsion. The court then prohibited effectively transferring him directly to Russia, but did not overturn the migration service’s decision in full.
