if they fulfilled Article 1A(2) criteria. In the present case, the Court found that the applicant’s claims regarding fear of persecution were not credible. To the extent that his fears were credible, the applicant could avoid persecution by seeking a transfer to a refugee camp outside the “sphere of influence” of the Islamic organization he claimed was persecuting him. The case was ultimately referred back to the authority of first instance to examine whether the applicant was entitled to subsidiary protection for reasons relating to his state of health and a lack of appropriate health care in Lebanon. Case E3 421668-1/2011-9E, of 29 February 2012418 In this case, the asylum seeker was a Palestinian from the Gaza Strip who was registered with UNRWA. The applicant fled to Austria because he feared for his life. The court concluded that the applicant’s claim of a well-founded fear of personal persecution was not credible and the request for asylum was denied. Case E7 423461-1/2011/5E, of 2 May 2012419 The applicant in this case was a Palestinian born in Libya and raised with his family in a refugee camp in Lebanon prior to his entry into Austria. The applicant was registered with UNRWA and possessed a Lebanese travel document for Palestinian refugees. He fled to Austria in fear for his life. The Federal Asylum Office determined that the applicant did not provide credible information regarding his reasons for departing Lebanon, nor did he face any credible threats of violence upon return to Lebanon. The court also determined that because Palestinian refugees in Lebanon were permitted to live outside refugee camps, the applicant had not exhausted his options to seek safety in Lebanon. 5.
