IAT The Secretary of State appealed against a decision of an Adjudicator dismissing an asylum claim by the Respondent, a citizen of Lithuania, but allowed her claim under the European Convention on Human Rights, finding that there was a real risk that to send her back to Lithuania would expose her to inhuman treatment which breached Article 3. He also decided that there was a real risk that she would suffer death and so there would be a breach of Article 2.
