High Court upholds the International Protection Appeals Tribunal's decisions that applications for international protection in Ireland by two Somali nationals were inadmissible. The Tribunal found no substantial grounds to believe that the applicants would face a real risk of inhuman or degrading treatment if returned to Greece, where they had been granted protection. The Tribunal's assessment considered the applicants' personal circumstances, including efforts to secure accommodation and employment in Greece, against the backdrop of country of origin information (COI). The Tribunal's decisions were challenged on rationality grounds, procedural fairness, and constitutional rights, but the High Court dismissed the challenges, affirming the Tribunal's application of the correct legal test and finding no breach of fair procedures or constitutional rights.
