Wael Latif, a native and citizen of Egypt, petitions for review of a decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”), which affirmed a decision of the Immigration Judge (“IJ)” denying Latifs application for withholding of removal and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). Latif argues that he demonstrated past persecution and a well-founded fear of future persecution as a result of his activities in the Muslim Brotherhood (“MB”), a government-banned political group.

Latif was detained once for a 12- to 14-hour period and was beaten during his detention. During the three-month period between his detention and his departure from Egypt, he was not bothered again. He has not associated with any MB members since his arrival in this country, and there is at least a small minority of parliamentary members in Egypt who sympa *323 thize with the MB. Additionally, at the time of the hearing, Latifs mother still lived in Alexandria, his sister in Cairo. The BIA’s determination is supported by substantial evidence, and the record does not compel a contrary conclusion. See Roy v. Ashcroft, 389 F.3d 132, 138 (5th Cir. 2004); Efe v. Ashcroft, 293 F.3d 899, 906 (5th Cir. 2002); 8 C.F.R. § 208.16(b).

Latif also argues that he demonstrated that it is more likely than not that, on account of his past membership in the MB, he will be tortured upon his return to Egypt. Because he has not shown that he is entitled to withholding of removal, he has not demonstrated that he can meet the higher standard for obtaining relief under the CAT. See Efe, 293 F.3d at 907. The petition for review is DENIED.
