PER CURIAM:
Ana Isabel Bueso and her minor son, natives and citizens of Honduras, petition for
review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals dismissing their appeal from the
immigration judge’s decision denying Bueso’s applications for asylum, withholding of
removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have
thoroughly reviewed the record and conclude that substantial evidence supports the
agency’s findings that Bueso did not establish that the Honduran government was unable
or unwilling to protect her from her abuser or that she was a member of her particular social
group. See INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 481 (1992) (noting that review of factual
findings is for substantial evidence). We further conclude that substantial evidence
supports the agency’s denial of protection under the CAT. Accordingly, we deny the
petition for review.
PETITION DENIED
