- Case number
- HCAL241/2025
Leave to apply for judicial review was refused because the applicant failed to identify any reasonably arguable legal error, irrationality or procedural unfairness in the Director's or Board's decisions; the Board's adverse credibility findings and the conclusions on availability of state protection and reasonable internal relocation were lawful and not susceptible to judicial intervention, and judicial review cannot be used to re‑hear the merits of the non‑refoulement claim.
