Leave to apply for judicial review was dismissed because the Board's decision to refuse late filing was not successfully challenged on public law grounds and, in any event, the applicant had left Hong Kong so his torture/non-refoulement claim is statutorily deemed withdrawn under s.37ZF, making any relief otiose.
