TA5-06066

Claim dismissed because claimant failed to prove a serious possibility of persecution or other serious harm: key credibility failures (fabricated land dispute and inconsistent education), viable and non-undue internal flight alternative to the capital with adequate state protection, and the labour camp history did not satisfy the Villafranca threshold for compelling reasons; therefore sections 96 and 97 IRPA not met.
