CCPR/C/133/D/2623/2015 Advance unedited version
7.7
The Committee considers that the information at its disposal demonstrates that the
State party took into account all claims raised by the author before its domestic authorities
and all elements available when evaluating the risks invoked by the author and that the author
has not identified any irregularity in the decision-making process. The Committee further
considers that, while the author disagrees with the factual conclusions of the State party
authorities, he has not shown that their decisions were clearly arbitrary or amounted to a
manifest error or denial of justice. Consequently, the Committee considers that the evidence
and circumstances invoked by the author have not adduced sufficient grounds for
demonstrating that he would run a real and personal risk of being subjected to treatment
contrary to articles 6 and 7 of the Covenant if returned to Iran. In view thereof, the Committee
is not able to conclude that the information before it shows that the author’s rights under
articles 6 and 7 of the Covenant would be violated if he were to be removed to Iran.
8.
The Committee, acting under article 5 (4) of the Optional Protocol, is of the view that
the facts before it do not permit it to conclude that the author’s removal to Iran would, if
implemented, violate his rights under articles 6 and 7 of the Covenant.
