Following;
Order by Deputy High Court Judge (Non-Refoulement Claims) Calvin Cheuk:
The application for leave to apply for judicial review be dismissed.
Observations for the Applicant:
Introduction
1. By a Form 86 filed on 26 January 2022 (the “Form”), the Applicant applied for leave to apply for judicial review of the decision of the Torture Claims Appeal Board/Non-refoulement Claims Petition Office (the “Board”) dated 7 December 2021 (the “Board’s Decision”), which affirmed the decision of the Director of Immigration (the “Director”) dated 31 May 2021 (the “Director’s Decision”).
2. The Applicant requested an oral hearing for the application. The hearing took place on 4 February 2026 and the Applicant attended in person. At the hearing, the Applicant indicated that she had nothing further to add to the application.
3. On 2 March 2026, the Applicant filed an affirmation requesting cancellation of her application.
4. There is no indication that the application for cancellation was made other than of the Applicant’s own free will. Further, there is nothing outstanding in these proceedings. The application is therefore dismissed. See Re Manik Md Mahamudun Nabi [2022] HKCA 471, at [19(1)].
