Judicial review dismissed; RAD reasonably found applicants had a viable internal flight alternative in Bogotá.
The applicants, citizens of Colombia, sought judicial review of a Refugee Appeal Division (RAD) decision that confirmed they had an internal flight alternative (IFA) in Bogotá.
The applicants argued the RAD imposed too high a burden of proof regarding their risk of persecution and erred in its analysis of their profile as social leaders.
The Federal Court found the RAD applied the correct legal tests and standards of proof, and reasonably concluded the applicants lacked the profile to be at risk from all armed combatants in Colombia.
The application for judicial review was dismissed.
