Summary

The applicant, a 42-year-old Vietnamese national who entered Hong Kong illegally in 2016, sought leave to apply for judicial review of the Director of Immigration's decision refusing his subsequent non-refoulement claim based on fear of harm from a creditor for failing to repay debts. Leave to apply for judicial review was refused and a Restricted Proceedings Order was imposed, as the subsequent claim raised no new facts or circumstances.
