6.6
The Committee recalls that it is generally for the organs of States parties to examine
the facts and evidence of a case, unless it can be established that such an assessment was
arbitrary or amounted to a manifest error or denial of justice.6 The author has not explained
why the decision by the Refugee Appeals Board would be contrary to this standard, nor has
he provided substantial grounds to support his claim that his removal to the Islamic
Republic of Iran would expose him to a real risk of irreparable harm in violation of article 7
of the Covenant. The Committee accordingly concludes that the author has failed to
sufficiently substantiate his claim of violation of article 7 for purposes of admissibility and
finds his communication inadmissible pursuant to article 2 of the Optional Protocol.
7.
The Committee therefore decides:
(a)
Protocol;
That the communication is inadmissible under article 2 of the Optional
(b)
That the decision be shall be communicated to the State party and to the
author.
