REASONS FOR JUDGMENT 1 The applicant applies to this Court for an extension of time to file and serve a Notice of Appeal from the decision of Federal Magistrate Driver delivered on 29 November 2004. The application before the Federal Magistrate sought judicial review of a decision of the Refugee Review Tribunal ('the Tribunal') signed on 29 May 2000 and handed down on 20 June 2000.
BACKGROUND 2 The applicant is a citizen of Bangladesh who claimed to have well-founded fear of persecution resulting from his political opinion. He claimed to have been a 'very active and prominent leader' within the Bangladesh Freedom Party. He claimed to have been vocal in advocating public opposition against the Awami League and as a result was the subject of various attacks by the Awami League on himself, his family and property. The applicant claimed that he was attacked and stabbed 'in the arms' at a Bangladesh Freedom Party rally where several other members were also injured. The applicant also claimed that the Awami League lodged several false claims against him.
