BE (Iran) v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2008] EWCA Civ 540; [2008] WLR (D) 159
“An Iranian soldier who had been ordered in peacetime to plant land mines liable to kill or maim innocent civilians, and who had deserted, was entitled to international protection as a refugee since the order constituted a requirement that he commit a grave violation of human rights which could further be characterised as ‘gross’ and ‘an atrocity’.
