Listen to this article

Petitioner sought review of the denial of her application for asylum, withholding of removal and protection under the Convention Against Torture.  

Where the immigration judge found petitioner not credible regarding her allegations of abuse against her husband, her parents, and co-workers at her parents’ bakery, given indicia of unreliability in supporting affidavits, the IJ reasonably concluded that petitioner had failed to carry her burden of proof.  

Petition is denied.
