Oromo from Ethiopia loses

The Asylum Officer ruled against Mr. O, the applicant, because:
1. Mr. O did not repeat each element in his written application. In writing, he said he witnessed the shooting death of his brother. However, when asked, "did you have any problems?" he did not mention that event.
2.  He departed from his country, found a place of safety, and then voluntarily returned to the so-called dangerous country.  If your country is indeed so dangerous, why did you voluntarily return to it?'=
=
3. He went to Belgium, but did not apply for asylum there. Why not?  If you really want and need asylum, you would apply as soon as possible, wouldn't you?
=
4.  You failed to name even one high-profile prisoner in prison. Not even one? I, the asylum officer, know more about your country than you do!
=
5.  You did not provide details about your political activity. I asked you what you did, and you said,"I attended meetings."  Anything else? you could not think of anything.

"Lack of details" is in my instruction book: if the applicant does not give multitudes of details, deny him!
