PER CURIAM:
Jianguan Chen, a native and citizen of the People’s Republic
of China, 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 thoroughly reviewed the record, including the transcript
of Chen’s merits hearing 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. See In re Chen (B.I.A. Nov. 9, 2015). 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
