A Somali migrant who had to flee his country due to violence has been forced to live on the streets after two European countries refused to grant him asylum. Ahmed Muhammed, who is using a different name due to security concerns, told Anadolu Agency his asylum request was rejected by France after two years of waiting and he was evicted from an asylum center. Muhammed said he initially applied for asylum in Belgium and stayed 11 months in an overcrowded asylum center, but his request was rejected. He said that although he brought his case to the court of appeal, he was rejected again and moved to France in 2017. He also applied for asylum in France, and after a long wait, the asylum interview was held in January last year but he was rejected again.
