Respondent
Representation :
For the Appellant: Ms Bayoumi of Counsel instructed by Asylum Justice
For the Respondent: Mr David Mills, Home Office Presenting Officer
DECISION AND REASONS
1. The appellant is a national of Libya, born on [ ] 1989. He arrived in the United Kingdom on 27 th July 2014, with entry clearance as a student until 1 st April 2015. On 21 st March 2015, the day following the end of his course, he made application for asylum.
2. The appellant's application was refused by the Secretary of State on 22 nd April 2016 and the appellant appealed the decision to the First-tier Tribunal. On 12 th December 2016, First-tier Tribunal Judge Powell heard the appellant's appeal. Counsel appearing on behalf of the appellant told the judge that the appellant did not rely on either the Immigration Rules or on Article 8 and confirmed that the appellant's human rights Articles 2 and 3 appeals stood or fell with his asylum claim and that in the light of country guidance he could not, and did not rely on Article 15(c) of the Qualification Directive. The judge applied the then country guidance case of AT (Article 15(c): risk categories) CG [2014] UKUT 318 (IAC) and in the light of that dismissed the appellant's appeal.
3. The appellant, dissatisfied with the judge's decision, sought and was granted leave to appeal on the basis that the judge erred in accepting a concession from the appellant's previous representative that Article 15(c) was not being pursued. At the hearing before me, Mr Mills handed me a copy of ZMM (Article 15(c)) Libya CG [2017] UKUT 263 (IAC) and told me that in the light of that decision the appellant's appeal is being allowed by the respondent. This determination appears as a matter of record.
Anonymity order made.
Direction Regarding Anonymity - Rule 14 of the Tribunal Procedure (Upper Tribunal) Rules 2008
Unless and until a Tribunal or court directs otherwise, the appellant is granted anonymity. No report of these proceedings shall directly or indirectly identify him or any member of his family. This direction applies both to the appellant and to the respondent. Failure to comply with this direction could lead to contempt of court proceedings.
