1. Details of the disposition;

A. On August 8, 2011, the Plaintiff entered the Republic of Korea on August 8, 201, and applied for refugee recognition to the Defendant on June 2, 2016.

B. On August 4, 2016, the Defendant rendered a disposition of non-recognition of refugee status (hereinafter “instant disposition”) to the Plaintiff on the ground that the Plaintiff cannot be deemed as having “a well-founded fear of persecution” as stipulated in Article 1 of the Convention on the Status of Refugees and Article 1 of the Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees.

C. On August 17, 2016, the Plaintiff filed an objection with the Minister of Justice on August 17, 2016, but the objection was dismissed on June 8, 2017.

[Ground of recognition] Evidence Nos. 1 through 4, Evidence Nos. 1 through 3, and the purport of the whole pleadings

2. Whether the instant disposition is lawful

A. The gist of the Plaintiff’s assertion is that the Plaintiff was active as a support of the BNP (Bangdededeh Nphy) Party at Bangladesh-si, and that the Plaintiff was threatened by refusing the demand for payment of donations at the present AL (AWama) Party, which is a party, and thus, the Plaintiff’s return to his own country is likely to be detrimental to the AL Party’s gambling if he returned to his own country.

Nevertheless, the instant disposition that did not recognize the Plaintiff as a refugee is unlawful.

B. In full view of the provisions of Article 2 subparag. 1 and Article 18 of the Refugee Act, Article 1 of the Refugee Convention, and Article 1 of the Refugee Protocol, foreigners in the Republic of Korea who are unable to be protected by the country of nationality or who do not want to be protected by the country of nationality due to well-founded fear of persecution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group, or political opinion, should be recognized as refugee. “persecution” which is the requirement for recognition of refugee refers to “an act causing serious infringement or discrimination against essential human dignity, including threats to life, body or freedom,” and thus, a foreigner applying for recognition of refugee has sufficient grounds.
