United States First Circuit

A petition for review of BIA's decision upholding an IJ's denial of petitioner's application for withholding of removal, is denied, as substantial evidence supports the IJ's determination that petitioner failed to show that it is more likely than not that, if removed to El Salvador, he would suffer persecution on account of his membership in a particular social group or on account of political opinion.
