   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  04-2798
   Agency   
   [PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Murphy and Bye, Circuit Judges] 
   Petition for Review - Immigration. Petitioners failed to establish that 
   they applied for asylum within one year of arrival in the United States; 
   petitioners failed to show a threat to their freedom or life sufficient to 
   support withholding of removal to Columbia; in order to sustain a claim 
   under the Convention Against Torture, petitioners must establish that the 
   government of Columbia is an agent of torture, and the claimed fear in 
   this case was not from the government but from FARC, the military wing 
   of the Columbian Communist Party.
