TB1-17385
Claimants failed to prove an objective basis for their fear and did not provide credible, consistent evidence of targeting or ongoing risk; their conduct (multiple departures and returns, continued work and residence) and unreliable documentation undermined their claim, therefore they do not meet the tests of ss.96 or 97(1) IRPA and the claims are rejected.
