MONITORING ACTIVITIES FORCED DEPORTATIONS Comments Deportations completed without criticism of the police: 8 Still pending at the time of going to press: 2 Forced deportation by chartered plane of 16 foreign nationals. During the deportation, force was used in the form of manual restraint, helmets, an adult diaper and transport belts with strapped arms, hands and legs. The deportation was monitored by two of the Ombudman’s legal case officers, who had special focus on specific persons when the foreign nationals were picked up and during the flight. The deportation of some of the foreign nationals was aborted when they were denied entry by the authorities at their destination upon arrival. The Om­ budsman subsequently asked the National Police a number of questions in connection with the deportation. The case was still pending at the time of going to press. Forced deportation by scheduled flight of a 38-year-old woman and her two sons, who were 12 and five years old. Only part of the deportation was monitored by an Ombudsman legal case officer, more specifically from the time when the police picked up the woman until boarding at the airport. Forced deportation by scheduled flight of a 29-year-old woman and her two-year-old daughter. Forced deportation by scheduled flight of a 19-year-old man. Only part of the deportation was monitored by an Ombudsman legal case officer, more specifically from the time when the police picked up the man until boarding at the airport.

Forced deportation by chartered plane of three men of 23, 40 and 47 years, respectively. Only part of the de­ portation was monitored by an Ombudsman legal case officer, more specifically from the time when the police picked up the men until they boarded a flight in Austria organised by Frontex, the European Border and Coast Guard Agency. Force was used in the form of manual restraint and a transport belt with strapped hands and arms on one of the men and a transport belt with one hand strapped on one of the other two men. 3) Since two Ombudsman legal case officers, with a different focus, participated in the deportation on 28 Feb­ruary to 1 March 2017, this deportation has been recorded as two deportations in the Ombudsman’s listing. 73
