MEMORANDUM ***

Petitioner Asmeret Afeworki (Afeworki) petitions for review of the denial of her application for asylum, withholding of re*596moval and relief under the Convention Against Torture (CAT).

Afeworki’s presentation of fraudulent documents to support her assertion that she was of Eritrean descent, coupled with her inconsistent testimony regarding the procurement of those documents, constitute substantial evidence supporting the Immigration Judge’s adverse credibility finding and the denial of Afeworki’s requests for asylum and withholding of removal. See Akinmade v. I.N.S., 196 F.3d 951, 955-56 (9th Cir. 1999) (explaining that false documents submitted to establish the elements of an asylum claim may support an adverse credibility determination); see also Farah v. Ashcroft, 348 F.3d 1153, 1156 (9th Cir. 2003) (affirming the denial of asylum and withholding of removal where adverse credibility determination supported by substantial evidence).

Because Afeworki’s CAT claim is “based on the same statements ... that the [Board of Immigration Appeals] determined to be not credible” we “must ... affirm the rejection of [Afeworki’s] claim under the [CAT].” Id. at 1157.

Afeworki’s failure to raise her claim for relief on humanitarian grounds before the Board of Immigration Appeals “constitutes failure to exhaust administrative remedies and deprives [us] of jurisdiction to hear the matter.” Pedroza-Padilla v. Gonzales, 486 F.3d 1362, 1365 n. 3 (9th Cir. 2007) (citation, and internal quotation marks omitted).

PETITION DENIED.
