INTERSECȚIA REGLEMENTĂRII TRECERILOR ILEGALE DE FRONTIERĂ CU PROCEDURA DE AZIL ÎN LUMINA DISPOZIȚIILOR LEGII NR. 122/2006. OPORTUNITATEA REGLEMENTĂRII UNEI NOI CAUZE DE SUSPENDARE A URMĂRIRII PENALE

This study has as object the incidental regulations in the matter of illegal border crossings and of asylum, as well as how they intersect, and it intends to find an adequate solution for what happens with the criminal prosecution, in the cases of fraudulent crossings of the state border, in the course of solving the application for being granted a form of protection submitted by the person who has illegally crossed the border. It is proposed the intervention of the legislator in the sense of introducing a rule which provides as cause of suspension of the criminal prosecution the situation where the person wanted for the fraudulent crossing of the state border has subsequently submitted an application for being granted a form of protection and is subject to the asylum procedure. The need for such intervention is motivated by the ineffectiveness of continuing the criminal prosecution and of the settlement of the case provided that, at the end of the asylum procedure, the person concerned can be granted a form of protection from among those recognized by the Law No 122/2006, the cause of non-punishment provided in Article 11 of this law being thus incidental.
