14 RAMADAN v. MALTA JUDGMENT measure is not enforceable (see Vijayanathan and Pusparajah, cited above, § 46; see also Pellumbi v. France (dec.), no. 65730/01, 18 January 2005, and Etanji v. France (dec.), no. 60411/00, 1 March 2005). It has adopted the same stance in cases where execution of the deportation order has been stayed indefinitely or otherwise deprived of legal effect, and where any decision by the authorities to proceed with deportation can be appealed against before the relevant courts (see Sisojeva and Others, cited above, § 93, with further references to the cases of Kalantari v. Germany (striking out), no. 51342/99, §§ 55-56, ECHR 2001-X, and Mehemi v. France (no. 2), no. 53470/99, § 54, ECHR 2003-IV; see also Andric v. Sweden (dec.), no. 45917/99, 23 February 1999; Benamar and Others v. France (dec.), no. 42216/98, 14 November 2000; Djemailji v. Switzerland (dec.), no. 13531/03, 18 January 2005; and Yildiz v. Germany (dec.), no. 40932/02, 13 October 2005). 54. Regarding the applicant’s victim status in relation to the complaint that his removal from Malta would affect his private and family life, the Court notes that the authorities have not issued a removal order. Indeed, no steps towards such action have been taken at any point since 2007, when the order to revoke his citizenship was issued and was thus enforceable. Although during the intervening period, proceedings concerning the applicant’s complaints have been pending before the domestic courts and subsequently before the Court, neither the domestic courts nor the Court have ordered interim measures (capable of giving any legitimacy to the letter sent to the authorities by the applicant’s legal representative – see paragraph 28 above). It follows that the authorities were under no obligation to desist from deporting the applicant, had they intended to do so. 55. Furthermore, even if such a removal order were to be issued, the applicant may appeal against it to the Immigration Appeals Board (see paragraph 36 above). The Court reiterates that where expulsions are challenged on the basis of alleged interference with private and family life (unlike complaints concerning Articles 2 and 3), it is not imperative, in order for a remedy to be effective, that it should have automatic suspensive effect (see De Souza Ribeiro v. France [GC], no. 22689/07, § 83, ECHR 2012). However, domestic courts must seriously examine the circumstances and legal arguments in favour of or against a violation of Article 8 of the Convention in the event of the removal order being enforced. Haste in the execution of a removal order may have the effect of rendering the available remedies ineffective in practice and therefore inaccessible (ibid, § 95). At this stage there is no indication that any eventual removal would be executed in a perfunctory manner and with such haste that it would have the effect of rendering the available remedies ineffective in practice and therefore inaccessible (contrast De Souza Ribeiro, cited above, § 96).
