dismissing his action under the Alien Torts Statute, 28 U.S.C. §
1350 (2006) and the Torture Victim Protection Act, P.L. 102-256,
106 Stat. 73. We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed in
forma pauperis and affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. Asemani v. Ahmadinejad, No. 1:10-cv-00874-RDB (D. Md.
Apr. 20, 2010). We dispense with oral argument because the
facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the
materials before the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
AFFIRMED
