MEMORANDUM **

Alfit Tarigan, a native and citizen of Indonesia, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) decision affirming an immigration judge’s denial of his application for asylum, withholding of removal and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”).

We have jurisdiction to review the BIA’s denial of Tarigan’s withholding of removal and CAT claims under 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review for substantial evidence, and we will uphold the BIA’s decision unless the evidence compels a contrary conclusion. Bellout v. Ashcroft, 363 F.3d 975, 977-79 (9th Cir.2004).
