SZKPL v Minister for Immigration and Citizenship [2007] FCA 1740

The court found no jurisdictional error in the Tribunal's decision; the Tribunal's assessment that the applicants did not have a well-founded fear of persecution and would have protection from Indian authorities was properly made; none of the grounds raised constituted an arguable case for leave to appeal.
