55In the present case, with regard to the examination of Paragraph 63(2) of the AufenthG against, in the first place, the indicator in the second sentence of Article 21(a), item (i), of Regulation No 562/2006, according to which the exercise of police powers cannot be regarded as ‘equivalent to the exercise of border checks’, in particular where the checks provided for in that national legislation ‘do not have border control as an objective’, the Court has already held that it is clear from Article 2(9) to (11) of that regulation that that objective aims, first, to ensure that persons may be authorised to enter the territory of the Member State or to leave it and, secondly, to prevent persons from circumventing border checks. The checks concerned may be carried out systematically (judgment of 19 July 2012, Adil, C‑278/12 PPU, EU:C:2012:508, paragraph 61).
