Summary

The applicant, a Pakistani national, sought leave to apply for judicial review of the Torture Claims Appeal Board's decision rejecting his non-refoulement claim. The TCAB Decision had affirmed the Director of Immigration's earlier rejection. The application for leave was dismissed after the court found no reasonably arguable grounds for judicial review.
