PER CURIAM:
Eman Abdel Magid and derivative petitioner Mohamed Shama, both natives and
citizens of Egypt, petition for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals
(Board) dismissing their appeal from the Immigration Judge’s denial of Magid’s requests
for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against
Torture. We have thoroughly reviewed the record, including the transcript of Magid’s
merits hearing and all supporting evidence. We conclude that the record evidence does
not compel a ruling contrary to any of the agency’s factual findings, see 8 U.S.C.
§ 1252(b)(4)(B) (2012), and that substantial evidence supports the Board’s decision,
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 Magid (B.I.A. Oct. 21, 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
