MEMORANDUM *

Saleh Nagi (“Nagi”), a native and citizen of Yemen, entered the United States on tourist visas four times between September 19, 1989, and September 2, 1992. Nagi was authorized to remain no later than March 3, 1993. He faded to depart. The former Immigration and Naturalization Service (“INS”) charged Nagi with removability pursuant to Section 237(a)(1)(B) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (“the Act”), 8 U.S.C. § 1227 (a)(1)(B), for remaining in the United States longer than permitted. Nagi admitted the government’s factual allegations and conceded removability but applied for relief in the form of political asylum under Section 208 of the Act, withholding of removal to Yemen under Section 241(b)(3) of the Act, and relief under Article III of the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). Finding Nagi’s testimony “not sufficiently detailed, consistent or believable,” the IJ denied Nagi’s application. The BIA dismissed Nagi’s appeal. Nagi now petitions for review of the BIA’s dismissal. We deny his petition.
