PER CURIAM:
Claudia Jasmin Guevara-Carranza and her minor daughter,
C.M.M., natives and citizens of El Salvador, petition for review
of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) dismissing
their appeal from the immigration judge’s denial of Guevara-
Carranza’s requests for asylum, withholding of removal, and
protection under the Convention Against Torture. We have
thoroughly reviewed the record, including the transcript of their
merits hearing before the immigration court and all supporting
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) (2012), 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. In re Guevara-Carranza (B.I.A. Apr. 1, 2016).
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
