Another Tribunal Win: Justice Served After 12 Years

12 Years Locked Up. 48 Hours to Leave. They Found IR Legal. Then Justice Was Served.

When our client was handed a notice to leave Australia within just 48 hours, it looked like the end of the road. After 12 years behind bars, six in prison and six more in immigration detention hope seemed distant.

But at IR Legal, we never back down when justice is on the line.

After a gruelling legal process including detailed legal submissions and a tough two-day hearing before the Administrative Review Tribunal, complete with expert and witness testimony justice prevailed.

The Outcome: A Landmark Decision

The Tribunal:

  • Set aside the decision of the Department of Home Affairs,

  • Ordered a reconsideration of the case, and

  • Confirmed that our client meets the criteria for a Protection Visa under international law.

This wasn't just a procedural win it was a powerful affirmation of human rights, international legal standards, and the right to a fair process.
