Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Tibebu Hailu Beyene, a native and citizen of Ethiopia,
petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration
Appeals (“Board”) dismissing his appeal from the immigration
judge’s decision denying his requests for asylum, withholding of
removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture.
We have thoroughly reviewed the record, including the various
documentary exhibits relevant to country conditions in Ethiopia,
the transcript of Beyene’s merits hearing, and Beyene’s
supporting affidavit and evidence. We conclude that the record
evidence does not compel a ruling contrary to any of the
administrative factual findings, see 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(4)(B)
(2006), and that substantial evidence supports the Board’s
decision. See INS v. Elias–Zacarias,
502 U.S. 478, 481 (1992).
Accordingly, we deny the petition for review for the reasons
stated by the Board. See In re: Beyene (B.I.A. Dec. 12, 2012).
We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before
this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
