Judicial review of RAD decision dismissed; finding of viable internal flight alternative reasonable.
The applicant, a citizen of India, sought judicial review of a Refugee Appeal Division (RAD) decision dismissing his appeal from a Refugee Protection Division (RPD) decision rejecting his refugee claim.
While finding his allegations credible, the RPD concluded he had a viable internal flight alternative (IFA) in Delhi or Faridabad.
The RAD upheld this finding.
The Federal Court found the RAD's decision reasonable, concluding the applicant failed to demonstrate that his agents of persecution (a wealthy man and police) had the motivation and capacity to locate him in the proposed IFAs, and that it would not be objectively unreasonable for him to relocate there given his professional experience.
The application for judicial review was dismissed.
