Makalo v. Holder, 09-2034

A Gambian citizen's petition for review of a decision by the BIA affirming an IJ's denial of his application for withholding of removal and related relief is denied as substantial evidence supported the IJ's and BIA's denial of relief as petitioner simply did not present significant credible evidence that he was wanted by Gambian authorities or that he was wanted for political reasons.
