PER CURIAM:
Edward Busiku, a native and citizen of the Democratic
Republic of the Congo, petitions for review of an order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals (“Board”) dismissing his appeal from
the immigration judge’s denial of his requests for asylum,
withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against
Torture. We have reviewed the record and the Board’s order and
find that substantial evidence supports the Board’s decision to
uphold the immigration judge’s denial of Busiku’s requests for
withholding of removal and protection under the Convention Against
Torture. Accordingly, we deny the petition for review on the
reasoning of the Board. See In re: Busiku, No. A95-221-369 (B.I.A.
Sept. 10, 2004). 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.
PETITION DENIED
