Given that there have not been many decisions placing asylum seekers in detention at the Detention Centre for Foreigners, it is impossible to form a clear picture of the current state of affairs in this field. What can be seen from the Administrative Court case files is that detention has been extended in several cases to the maximum of 6 months, but also that only handful of complaints were lodged in general against immigration detention imposed under the Foreigners Act.
