The applicant sought judicial review of a decision by the Refugee Appeal Division confirming the Refugee Protection Division's rejection of his refugee claim.
The claim was based on fear of persecution in China as a member of the Three Grades of Servants Christian sect.
The RAD found the applicant lacked credibility due to his inability to explain the beliefs or practices of his church and inconsistencies in his testimony.
The Federal Court found the RAD's decision reasonable, noting that it was open to the RAD to afford no weight to corroborative evidence when the central story was found not credible.
The application for judicial review was dismissed.
