United States Ninth Circuit

In a petition for review of an order of the BIA finding petitioner, a native and citizen of Eritrea, ineligible for asylum, withholding of removal under the Convention Against Torture (CAT) and unentitled to deferral of removal, petition is denied where the BIA's conclusions that petitioner engaged in terrorist activities are supported by substantial evidence but granted, with relief under the CAT, because petitioner has demonstrated that she will likely be tortured by or with the acquiescence of the Eritrean government upon her deportation.
