Home Office withdraws asylum refusal following the Appeal Skeleton Argument prepared by Sonya Kalyan

Home Office withdraws asylum refusal for young Iranian national ahead of hearing, following the Appeal Skeleton Argument prepared by Sonya Kalyan.

Arguments focused on:

  1. The lower asylum standard of proof and the need for anxious scrutiny in credibility assessments.
  2. Failure to conduct a child-focused best interests’ assessment under s.55, despite A being a minor (at the time) in local authority care.
  3. A’s protest in Iran (which led to his parents’ arrest) and his UK sur place activism, placing him at real risk as a young Kurdish dissident.

If you require a detailed Appeal Skeleton Argument from one of our Immigration Specialist Counsel, please contact our clerks.

We accept instructions on both a private and controlled legal representation basis.
