The man who cannot be named for legal reasons arrived in the State in April and applied for International Protection
A Palestinian man who claims he is a former political prisoner and was extensively tortured in an Israeli jail has sued the State arising out of his homelessness after he sought international protection in Ireland.
He has brought High Court judicial review proceedings against the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth, Ireland and the Attorney General where he seeks various orders and declarations. These include an order compelling the Minister to provide the man with accommodation and a vulnerability assessment.
The man's counsel asked the court to adjourn the matter to a date in September, which the Judge agreed to do. Represented by Keivon Sotoodeh Bl instructed by Patrick J Sweeney solicitors, the man claims that he was incarcerated in an Israeli prison for seven years.
