Morris _________________ Submitted Under Third Circuit L.A.R. 34.1(a) October 4, 2019 Before: SHWARTZ, SCIRICA, and FUENTES, Circuit Judges. (Filed: February 13, 2020) _________________ OPINION ** _________________ ** This disposition is not an opinion of the full Court and pursuant to I.O.P. 5.7 does not constitute binding precedent. FUENTES, Circuit Judge. Petitioner Md Tuser Emran, also known as Emran Md Tuser, seeks review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) dismissing the appeal, and in effect affirming an Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) decision to deny his applications for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). For the following reasons, we will deny the petition for review. I. Emran is a native and citizen of Bangladesh. In September 2013, Emran was admitted to the United States on a nonimmigrant F-1 student visa. Emran later fell out of status by failing to attend school and working without authorization. Emran returned to Bangladesh in July 2017. A short time later, he returned to the United States and applied for re-admission in New York without valid entry documents.

Emran further testified that a few years later, members of the AL searched for him at his family’s home. When the AL did not find Emran, they vandalized his home and physically assaulted and kidnapped his brother. The men held Emran’s brother for seven days until his family sold half of their land and paid the ransom. After that incident, Emran lived in hiding in various locations. Nevertheless, on another occasion, individuals from the AL vandalized Emran’s garment store and forced the store manager to call Emran to set up a meeting. Emran waited for the store manager, but instead, members of the AL showed up and beat Emran again.
