U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 15-2376
Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals
[PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Beam and Murphy, Circuit Judges]
Petition for Review - Immigration. Substantial evidence supported the IJ's
and BIA's conclusion that petitioner did not suffer persecution on account
of his claimed protected grounds of political opinion, religion or
membership in a particular social group (witnesses to Mungiki crimes and
Kikuyus who resist recruitment by the Mungiki); neither of the social
groups petitioner relies on are cognizable particular social groups;
petition failed to establish a well-founded fear of future persecution if
he returned to Kenya; denial of asylum affirmed.
