PER CURIAM:
Tomas Mulugheta Mahari, a native of Saudi Arabia and a citizen
of Eritrea, 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 and
withholding of removal. We have thoroughly reviewed the
administrative record and Mahari’s contentions on appeal, and
conclude that substantial evidence supports the agency’s decision.
See INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 481 (1992). We
accordingly deny the petition for review for the reasons stated by
the Board. See In re: Mahari (B.I.A. Oct. 3, 2014). 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
