Refugees. The 1951 Convention relative to the Status of Refugees and the 1966 Additional Protocol define a refugee as a person "who, owing to well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion, is outside the country of his nationality and is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to avail himself of the protection of that country." The Organization of African Unity (OAU) Convention governing the Specific Aspects of Refugee Problems in Africa, for its part, defines as a refugee "every person who, owing to well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion, is outside the country of his nationality and is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to avail himself of the protection of that country, or who, not having a nationality and being outside the country of his former habitual residence as a result of such events is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to return to it." The same Convention adds that the term "refugee" shall also apply to "every person who, owing to external aggression, occupation, foreign domination or events seriously disturbing public order in either part or the whole of his country of origin or nationality, is compelled to leave his place of habitual residence in order to seek refuge in another place outside his country of origin or nationality." Given that there are refugees who are no longer in their first country of asylum, Committee IV is in agreement that these persons should receive the same treatment as Burundian refugees who return to Burundi, and the National Commission for the Rehabilitation of Sinistrés (see 1.4.) will decide on a case-by- case basis.
