EU Court reference on the extradition of a person that was granted refugee status
The granting of refugee status in a Member State precludes the extradition of the person concerned to his or her country of origin. As long as the authority that granted that status has not revoked or withdrawn it, the person concerned cannot be extradited, regardless of the underlying reasons for the extradition request.
