When Karoh was sixteen years old in 2017, he left his native nation. The youngster was forced to travel to Serbia by the Hungarian police, who knew his age and refused to place him in the Children's Home for Unaccompanied Minors in the town of Fót, according to EU Helpers.

The rules that were implemented at that time obliged the client of the Hungarian Helsinki Committee, who has now won this case in Strasbourg, as well as his adult companions, to leave Hungary. Since then, the European Court of Human Rights and the EU Court of Justice have declared these regulations to be unconstitutional.

The Court specifically took issue with the fact that the Hungarian state violated the rights of a vulnerable kid.

In response to the Strasburg verdict, Tamás Fazekas, the attorney for the Hungarian Helsinki Committee and Karoh's attorney, stated that it would be far better for everyone if Hungary reviewed asylum claims under a fair asylum system rather than deporting children without due process.

The sixth ruling in a string of rulings for the clients of the Hungarian Helsinki Committee was rendered by Karoh in Strasburg. These rulings have established that the ban on collective expulsion is violated by mass pushbacks that lack a legitimate justification or that take into account unique circumstances.

The Helsinki Committee of Hungary states that fundamental human rights apply to foreign nationals as well, "no matter what the Prime Minister says." The Committee bases this assertion on the fact that the European Court of Human Rights has validated it twice.

On October 5, of last year, the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) found that Hungary had mistreated asylum seekers in three rulings rendered in Strasburg, where the Hungarian Helsinki Committee was represented.

The Committee then stated that, contrary to what the government had emphasized, Hungarian transit zones served for more than five years as a means of frightening and wearing out asylum seekers in this region so they would return to Serbia "voluntarily," thereby depriving themselves of asylum.

The Migration Asylum Pact has to be finalized, according to a recent UNHCR appeal to Hungary and Belgium. This year, both nations alternated as the EU Council's presidents, with Belgium leading from January to June and Hungary leading from July to December.
