[1] In spite of the argument of counsel for the applicant, I am unable to find any error that would warrant intervention by the Court in this case. Credibility cases are difficult for applicants and this is no exception. The Board as the trier of facts is in the best position to assess the credibility of an applicant and has complete jurisdiction to determine the plausibility of an applicant's story.
[2] The application for judicial review is dismissed.
