Emanuel, an 8-month-old infant, has been informed that he is to be deported to Iran, while his family members will remain in Sweden. His mother, Masoumeh Ghorbani, expresses deep concern and heartbreak over the situation, stating her son's sociable nature and that he has just learned to crawl, making his life in Sweden all the more poignant.

The family learned of the deportation in January, which was previously reported by Ekot. Ghorbani, who works as a care assistant in a cancer ward at Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm, is on a work permit after unsuccessfully seeking asylum. The policy framework, known as "spårbyte," allowed her to transition to a work visa, which has been in place since then and underscores the complexities faced by families navigating immigration laws in Sweden.

This case brings to light the often heartbreaking implications of immigration policies, especially concerning children. The emotional toll on families caught in such situations is immense, highlighting the need for compassionate policies that consider the best interests of children within affected families.
