- HCAL1441/2025
The application for extension of time was refused because the leave application was filed beyond the three-month limit and the applicant failed to demonstrate a realistic prospect of success on the merits; the Board's findings that the claim was unsubstantiated, state protection was available, BOR 2 and BOR 3 were not engaged, the matter did not meet the statutory definition of torture and internal relocation was viable were within the Board's fact-finding province and not shown to involve error of law, procedural unfairness or irrationality, therefore leave is dismissed.
