and of course that's based on the compelling facts in this case my client's brother and sues was excessive all da informant who is responsible for the described destruction of a lucrative cartel drug tunnel operation days over for four months total for months and each time the harm was motivated explicitly by trying to induce my client to lure his brother back  the the information that you're conveying us where courage to your client with case law to decide whether that amounts to past persecution but i'd like to take you to the issue of whether he could reasonably relocate and i i understand your family members three still residing in mexico and not being harmed and you argue that they're not similarly situated so what gives me pause is he says this testimony before the i j a about the  homeless the indication is a cartel is never going to wear of him still not aware of him the rd settling is maria again there's no indication whatsoever in the record that the cartel has or had any knowledge of her existence so the only one is is manuel those who was sobs detained for an hour or two by the gallows police department a number of years ago and exactly judge as you as you explained it that's what the records the cartels how do you get around on page four of the b i e s decision b i's conclusion that respondent has not demonstrated that the mexican i don't know our practice of persecution against other individuals similarly situated you can show that if you can show mexican government acquiescence and there is evidence that your client believed or was told by the cartel that the cartel had the government in his pocket therefore he should go and report anything but i similarly situated your honor petitioner has tried to have it both ways he's attempted to say that jose is part of this cartel that is involved with the police that is all encompassing they have access everywhere in mexico and they can find him everywhere and yet they have no idea that a loose has three other siblings in mexico who are living there on the harm the two cannot co exist he's saying as part of a relocation oh i can't relocate because they're going to find but at the same time they can't  that i have three other siblings that are living in the same state and mexico and have been on   the agency also determined that it would not be unsafe or unreasonable for him to relocate within mexico and again pointing to the same evidence these siblings who have lived there and just a different city within mexico and they've been completely on harm their entire life and in fact additional had lived in that city before and when he lived there he was also on harm he lived there for fifteen years earlier ners like and then he lived there another year from two thousand and seven to two thousand moved from where he had been living with his sibling and obrigado a different city in mexico when he was outside of nogales he never experienced any harm in mexico  so in this case the immigration judge in particular pointed to the sibling that were living in oberg on pointed to the fact that petitioner never experience harm outside  s and there's nothing in the record demonstrating otherwise that he could not reasonably relocate there's of the factors that the board has said should be looked at before none of them were presented the petitioner in this case to be examined so the elements that were present and the record them a gratian judge and the board looked at and determined that it was safe and reasonable for partitioner to relocate upset about what his brother in helping d e c a uncover the tunnel operation and we certainly see cases involving murders of family members of cooperating informants is is this a case where the government might be willing to meet with counsel for petitioner to discuss mediation that the government the government certainly has a vested interest in encouraging informants to come forward and cooperate with them and if one of the hesitations in doing that is fear that informants family members will be harmed by the cartel i can see a pretty legitimate interest on the part of the government here and maybe seeing if something can't be worked out for this particular position given the account a family member ship being part of the bar a family when they made that determination in the sense that if it's just the family of a zeus that jose is looking relocation should not have been an issue for petition because there's no evidence that jose could fly and petition or in any area outside   my class let so under the circumstances we do believe that there's plenty of evidence in the record that it would not be safe especially because there are a number of other including the fact that my client and all of his family have essentially lived in sonora mexico and southern arizona for the last several decades in the trillions of matters that my client is going to be much safer closer to the border and quite frankly closer
