The applicant sought judicial review of a decision denying his humanitarian and compassionate (H&C) application.
His initial refugee claim based on alleged kidnapping and torture by Al-Shabaab in Somalia was rejected due to lack of credibility.
In the H&C application, the officer relied on the Refugee Protection Division's findings regarding risk and country conditions, and found the applicant's establishment in Canada was not significant enough to warrant relief.
The Federal Court found the officer's global assessment of the H&C factors to be reasonable and dismissed the application for judicial review.
