AH (Algeria) v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2012] EWCA Civ 395; [2012] WLR (D) 106

“In looking to the question whether an asylum seeker, who had been a member of a terrorist organisation and convicted of a crime outside the country of refuge, fell to be excluded from the Refugee Convention pursuant to article 1F(b) and (c) thereof, one had to avoid applying a presumption of individual liability; and in asking whether the crime in question was sufficiently ‘serious’ one also had to set the applicable threshold with care.”
