REASONS FOR JUDGMENT 1 Before the Court is an appeal against orders made by the Federal Magistrates Court on 12 April 2007. The Federal Magistrate refused an application to review a decision of the Refugee Review Tribunal handed down on 14 November 2006. The Tribunal affirmed a decision of a delegate of the then named Minister for Immigration and Multicultural Affairs, the first respondent, not to grant the appellant a protection visa. The appellant claimed fear of persecution in Bangladesh on the grounds of political belief.
The appellant's claims 2 The appellant claimed that he is likely to be harmed by members of the Islamic party Jamat-e Islam as a result of his association with the Awami League; his support for democracy, moderate Islam and women's rights; and his refusal to provide Jamat-e Islam with assistance in bomb making. He claimed that the police would not protect him from serious harm.
