Conservative media in Sweden is doing what the mainstream media and the authorities are failing to do. They have blown the lid off the human smuggling activities of a Social Democrat politician (from Syria) who is still trying to get Swedish citizenship. It appears Rashad Alasaad is trying to expedite the naturalization process since he has been exposed as a human smuggler.
Below is the translation:
Court orders Migration Board to make up their mind regarding the human trafficker’s application for Swedish citizenship, “as soon as possible.”
Samhallsnytt continues to follow the leads of the Social Democrat politician, also known as the human trafficker, Rashad Alasaad. Today (Oct 4, 2019) the Immigration Court is ordering the Immigration Board in Malmo to make a decision concerning his application to become a Swedish citizen, and as soon as possible. " I want them to make a positive decision."
Samhallsnytt disclosed yesterday new materials about the Social Democrat human trafficker of Ljungby, Rashad Alasaad. Among other things, we exposed that Alasaad owns several properties in Sweden since 2018. The values of those properties don’t match his declared income. After a journalistic investigation by Expressen news outlet, led by Kassem Hamade, which exposed Alasaad, the border police has started an investigation on basis of suspicion of human trafficking.
Besides, we were also able to disclose new information showing that Alasaad is a Syrian citizen who has been granted a Swedish residence permit. This situation lays the ground for the prosecutor to demand deportation if the police decided to press charges.
We can provide more information today. A very short time before Expressen published their investigation to the public, Rashad Alasaad on Wednesday, contacted the Migration Board demanding that they hurry up and make a decision regarding his application to become a Swedish citizen.
Alasaad was probably aware of the ongoing investigation by Expressen by the time - September 25th - he submitted his request to the Migration Board. He realized what consequences such an investigation could make if it were to become public, especially consequences on his application for Swedish citizenship. If his request were to be approved, he would be sure that he wouldn’t get deported.
The background to this request is an earlier verdict by the Migration Court which judged that his request for citizenship should be finalized within four weeks - which means in August. The immigration authority stated on September 23rd that they refused the request because the Migration Board didn’t manage to consider the request within that four-week window.
The Immigration Court in Malmo has made a decision this morning which backs up Alasaad:
The Migration Board will make a decision regarding his request to become a Swedish citizen as soon as possible. It took the board merely one week to make this decision. This is utterly odd if taken in consideration the time which it usually takes for similar verdicts. On average, the procedures of such cases take between two to twelve months. It can also take much longer, even up to four years, which the parliamentary ombudsman criticized last summer. But in his case, it took remarkably a short time to make a decision.
When an applicant submits a request to become a Swedish citizen, the immigration board starts what is known as “conduct examination”. The examination starts with a request of an official at the board to check the police’s suspect directory and judicial/criminal records, and finally, a statement (of approval) by Sapo (Swedish Security Police). It is still unknown when a person’s information is added to the suspect directory when the police starts an investigation due to suspicion. This is noticeable because it could directly affect Alasaad’s application to become a Swedish citizen. In case of approval before prosecution, he would be granted immunity against deportation.
Samhallsnytt has contacted the Migration Board’s press office to ask about their suspect directory and “conduct examination” process. But they neither knew how long the police will take to add an individual’s information to the suspect directory, nor if the investigation of Alasaad will impose an obstacle to his application for citizenship.
