AIT It is a question of fact to be decided on the evidence of the appellant’s history and experiences as to whether a homosexual appellant ‘can reasonably be expected to tolerate’ living discreetly in Iran. Enforcement of the law against homosexuality in Iran is arbitrary but the evidence does not show a real risk of discovery of, or adverse action against, homosexuals in Iran who conduct their homosexual activities discreetly. The position has not deteriorated since RM and BB.
