The Tribunal rejected the claim because it found the claimant not credible and concluded there was insufficient evidence of a serious possibility of persecution or inability/unwillingness of the Croatian state to protect her; therefore she is neither a Convention refugee nor a person in need of protection under ss.96 or 97(1) IRPA.
