The Federal Court dismissed judicial review of an RPD credibility finding, holding that the psychotherapist’s report did not overcome multiple inconsistencies in the applicant’s evidence.
La Cour fédérale rejette la demande de contrôle judiciaire et confirme le rejet de l’appel d’asile, jugeant raisonnable l’analyse de crédibilité et du poids de la preuve documentaire par la SAR.
The Federal Court dismissed judicial review of a RAD decision rejecting a refugee claim, finding the credibility findings and forward-looking risk assessment were reasonable.
The Federal Court upheld the RAD’s refusal of refugee protection, finding the credibility analysis reasonable and no basis to interfere under s. 96 or s. 97 IRPA.
The appeal is dismissed because the Appellant's credibility is undermined by multiple unexplained inconsistencies and omissions, failure to provide corroboration, and submission of documents found more likely than not to be fraudulent or of low probative value; consequently he has not established membership in IPOB or PDP, is not shown to be wanted by Nigerian authorities, and has not demonstrated a serious possibility of persecution or a section 97 risk of harm for refusing FGM.
Source excerpt
The appeal is dismissed because the RAD concluded the RPD's adverse credibility findings were justified based on inconsistencies, omissions and suspicious circumstances in the appellants' testimony and supporting affidavits; the newly proffered affidavits were inadmissible for credibility reasons, the admitted newspaper articles were general country‑condition evidence only and not material to these appellants, and there was no independent credible documentary evidence to overcome the credibility findings or to require a separate or favorable subsection 97(1) disposition.
Source excerpt
The Federal Court granted judicial review, finding the RAD breached procedural fairness by making a new credibility finding about the applicant’s passport and exit from China without notice.
The RAD confirmed the RPD's finding that the appellants' credibility was rebutted: determinative contradictions between the BOC, testimony and port of entry notes, inconsistent conduct (delay leaving, delay claiming asylum, voluntary return to country of alleged fear), late material amendments without satisfactory explanation, and absence of objective corroboration (notably regarding bank legal action and cannabis sentence) rendered the claims unproven on a balance of probabilities and justified dismissal of the appeals.
