Elgafaji and another v Staatssecretaris van Justitie (Case C-465/07); [2009] WLR (D) 59

“For a person to be eligible for subsidiary protection status on the ground that there was a serious and individual threat to his life, it was not essential for him to prove that he was specifically targeted, but it could exceptionally be sufficient for such a threat to be established by a high level of indiscriminate violence in the country in question.”
