Iqbal Muhammad and five family members (wife, three children, and a minor born in Hong Kong) sought leave to appeal against the refusal of leave to judicially review the dismissal of their non-refoulement claims. The case involved Pakistani nationals claiming persecution. After a hearing, the Court considered whether the Board's treatment of country evidence and the family's claims was adequate.
