B A v Minister of Home Affairs and Others [2023] ZACC 16
Comments:
Two issues arise from this background. The first concerns the time afforded to an illegal foreigner, in this case the applicant, to apply for an asylum seeker permit in terms of the Refugees Act after entering the country. The second is whether the illegal foreigner is entitled to be released from detention after expressing an intention to seek asylum while awaiting deportation until such time that his or her application has been finalised
