"some 80 percent of Eritrean asylum seekers “are granted some form of protection because of credible fears of persecution relating to punishment for evading indefinite military service in Eritrea and other widespread human rights abuses”"

"Until June of this year, Switzerland accepted avoidance of Eritrea's military service as a valid reason for claiming asylum"

"fter the current revision of the asylum law conscientious objection to military service will no longer be a valid reason to receive political asylum in Switzerland. Especially persons who originate from Sudan, Myanmar or, as in B.D.’s case, from Eritrea cannot be deported after a negative decision by the Swiss authorities since their life would be at danger in their native country. But not being able to return home means a life in Switzerland with an F permit."
