MA8-05503
The panel found the principal claimant not credible due to omissions, contradictions and implausible explanations, failure to corroborate central facts (cohabitation, complaint reports, employment), and submission of a document that was not a report to authorities; for those reasons the claimants failed to prove a well-founded fear under section 96 or that they are in need of protection under section 97 IRPA, and the claims were rejected.
