complainant has failed to provide sufficient evidence in support of his claims to the effect
that he would be exposed to a real risk of torture if he is removed to Uzbekistan.

In the light of the foregoing, the Committee finds that the complainant has not
established that, in case of his expulsion to the country of origin, he would face a
foreseeable, real and personal risk of being tortured within the meaning of article 3 of the

Accordingly, the Committee against Torture, acting under article 22, paragraph 7, of
the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or
Punishment, concludes that the complainant’s removal to Uzbekistan by the State party
would not constitute a breach of article 3 of the Convention.
