‘The applicant came to this country from Algeria in February 2004 and claimed asylum. His case, in summary, was that since 2001 he had acted as a an informer for the police against the GIA, but this had led to him receiving threats from the GIA and to his family being attacked and his father killed; that he had moved twice to escape from the GIA but was afraid of being found by them; and that the police were unable or unwilling to protect him.’
