Guatemalan citizen Henry Alfredo Moran petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals upholding an immigration judge’s denial of his application for asylum and withholding of removal. After careful consideration of those matters that are properly before us, we conclude that substantial evidence supports the denial of relief. See Davila-Mejia v. Mukasey, 531 F.3d 624, 627, 629 (8th Cir. 2008). The petition is denied. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
