Extracted by Omnilex
The European Commission of Human Rights declared inadmissible an asylum application against Switzerland. It held that, where new facts arise after a refusal of asylum, the applicant must first use the remedy of a request for reconsideration available under Swiss law. The summary also notes that an asylum seeker must make the alleged facts credible. Because that domestic remedy had not been pursued, the application failed on non-exhaustion grounds.
Art. 26 ECHR; asylum proceedings and exhaustion of domestic remedies: where the legal order of the respondent State provides a request for reconsideration or reopening in the event of new facts after a refusal of asylum, the applicant must avail himself of that remedy before lodging an international complaint. The admissibility requirement of exhaustion is not satisfied if an accessible and effective domestic avenue remains unused. In asylum matters, the applicant must moreover render the alleged facts plausible; bare assertions do not dispense with the obligation to pursue domestic remedies first (consid. implicit).

Whether the asylum applicant had exhausted domestic remedies under Article 26 ECHR.
He had not exhausted domestic remedies because he had to use the Swiss request for reconsideration when new facts arose after the asylum refusal.
Swiss law provided a reopening/reconsideration remedy for new facts, and the applicant was required to pursue it before seizing the Commission.
Whether the asylum applicant had made his alleged facts sufficiently credible.
The Commission considered that the applicant had to render his allegations credible as part of the asylum claim assessment.
The summary states that an asylum seeker must make the alleged facts plausible; this supported the conclusion that the domestic avenue remained available and should have been used.
