For the Appellant: Mr Spurling, Counsel instructed by Barnes Harrild & Dyer

For the Respondent: Mr Clerk, Home Office Presenting Officer

 

 

DECISION AND REASONS

1.              By my decision promulgated on 6 September 2019 I set aside the decision of the First-tier Tribunal. I now remake that decision.

2.              At the outset of the hearing, Mr Clerk conceded that in light of HB (Kurds) Iran CG [2018] UKUT 430 (IAC) the appeal should be allowed as there is a real risk that the appellant would be questioned, and asked for access to his Facebook account, on return to Iran.

3.              In light of the respondent's concession, I remake the decision of the First-Tier Tribunal by allowing the appellant's appeal against the refusal of his protection claim on the basis that his removal from the UK would breach the U.K.'s obligations under the Refugee Convention.
