The claim is rejected because the claimant failed to establish the existence of the pivotal political organization or his father's membership in it, produced significant omissions and contradictions in his account, and offered no corroborating evidence to demonstrate a risk of persecution on a Convention ground or individualized risk under section 97 IRPA; therefore the claim has no credible basis.
