Sabina Mammadhuseynova's case has been tried several times, both by the Swedish Migration Board and the court, but the decision on deportation has been upheld.
What prevented Sabina and her four children from being sent to Azerbaijan in early December was a missing travel document.
At the same time as the plane was in the air, a request came from the UN Committee against Torture to stop the deportation and for the time being they are allowed to stay.
"Azerbaijan is not a state governed by the rule of law"
Azerbaijan has long been troubled, and according to Amnesty, there are many problems linked to political activity and dissent.
- Azerbaijan is not a state governed by the rule of law and it is a country that has been criticized in the European Court of Justice.
Torture is common and politically active have been imprisoned, says Amnesty's lawyer Madelaine Seidlitz to SVT.
The Convention on the Rights of the Child has stopped deportation
According to the family's legal representative, a proper assessment of the children's situation has not been made.
He believes that the expulsion decision is contrary to the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
For the first time since the Convention on the Rights of the Child became law in Sweden, it has had a prejudicial impact in an expulsion case, when a 14-year-old girl and her parents were allowed to stay with reference to the best interests of the child.
- We will probably send in an application for impediment to enforcement due to the new ruling from the Migration Court of Appeal, regarding children who can get a residence permit due to a long stay in Sweden, says Robert Nyström.

In the video, Iréne Sokolow at the Swedish Migration Board explains how important the children play in decisions on deportation.
Expulsion temporarily paused
At present, the Swedish Migration Agency is waiting for the UN Committee against Torture to try the case.
If the torture committee considers that a decision is contrary to a Swedish convention obligation, for example the Convention on the Rights of the Child, those covered by the decision shall be granted a residence permit unless there are special reasons to carry out the deportation anyway.
