Asile. Situation politique générale au Nigeria et situation personnelle du requérant. Art. 3 CEDH. Interdiction de la torture et des peines ou traitements inhumains ou dégradants. Les documents, d’une nature strictement privée, produits par le requérant ne suffisent pas en l’espèce à démontrer qu’il risque de subir des traitements prohibés par cette disposition en cas de retour au Nigeria.

Die vom Beschwerdeführer eingereichten Unterlagen ausschliesslich privater Natur vermögen im vorliegenden Fall nicht zu beweisen, dass der Beschwerdeführer bei einer Rückkehr nach Nigeria einer nach dieser Bestimmung verbotenen Behandlung ausgesetzt wäre.
