Purport of claim and appeal

The first instance court.

Reasons

1. The issues of the instant case and the judgment of the court of first instance

A. On July 4, 2016, the key issue of the instant case: (a) the Plaintiff filed an application for refugee status with the Defendant on July 4, 2016; (b) on July 20, 2016, the Defendant rendered a disposition of non-recognition of refugee status (hereinafter “instant disposition”) on the ground that the Plaintiff cannot be recognized as having a ground, such as “not being able to be protected by the country of nationality due to a well-founded fear to recognize that he/she could be injured.”

Thus, the Plaintiff’s application for refugee recognition is legitimate.

① Even in consideration of the specificity of a refugee recognition case, there is no objective evidence supporting the Plaintiff’s assertion that the Plaintiff was assaulted by members of the high-speed village National Assembly, their supporters, etc. other than the Plaintiff’s statement.

② On September 6, 2011, the Plaintiff.
