The Committee decided to postpone the adoption of a decision on the age of the applicant and to refer the applicant, a minor, to an age assessment under the legal procedure (see in JMD 1982/16.02.2016). The minor from Syria was residing in Kos RIC and had been wrongfully assessed as an adult, after taking only into consideration an X-ray of his left hand and documents lodged by the applicant.
