X., born in 1970 and of Italian origin, has been married to the Swiss-born Italian national Y. since mid-1995, who holds a settlement permit. X. was arrested in the canton of Ticino and sentenced by the Locarno Jury Court to a prison sentence of three years and nine months and a seven-year ban from entering Switzerland for multiple aggravated offences against the Narcotics Act.
