United States First Circuit

Petition to review decision denying application for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture (CAT) is denied where: 1) Pakistani-citizen petitioner failed to present evidence to satisfy the standard of asylum; 2) therefore, he cannot meet the more rigorous standard for withholding of removal; and 3) petitioner's CAT claim is rejected because it depended on the same uncorroborated testimony as his asylum claim.
