if i have to ask you to repeat yourself and you can speak directly into your microphone so very much appreciate it also i'd like to reserve two minutes for a bottle please all right being informed upon let me ask you does it matter whether he was employed by the police or whether he was simply working at the warehouse and decided to help out the police you know i would submit that it does not matter i believe there is very strong evidence in the record that suggests that he was not in fact a police officer but was merely a university employee but in any event that shouldn't the police they place him in the university in a special position higher than he could ever get by him self and at twice the normal rate that's critz cetera clearly they could say maybe he's not he's happened at the time that he was stationed one with a particular guerrilla presence that it was in torrey's deathtrap for police officers because they were police officers and not necessarily because of the activities they were taking against that organization terrible decision in brianna's should we think about that it doesn't cover this case literally comes out of your argument though and it would mean that you know we have literally hundreds of police forces across the world that are battling who they see as political enemies of the state and would that perforce they would in effect be kind of baseline eligible for asylum you know whether it's the new people's army used to be in the philippines or whether it's going on in iraq or do you pick a country packed you know pakistan with with all those police forces in effect be eligible for asylum because they are fighting against political enemies who are not too happy about that people informing or investigating their activities i have two responses to that your honor the first is that there's a real distinction in the cases where the individuals are afraid that they will be persecuted because of their activities as members of the marches political demonstrations political graffiti on the walls bad things that these individuals would say about the government and those were the and also their efforts to to dr referred to as an informant that was not a kin to apply imputing a political belief to the fact this case do not compel a different result and i would submit there's another issue in this case as well the immigration judge manifestly contrary to law and was not was an abuse of discretion mr rios clearly was acting on behalf of the police he was employed by the police at the university salary was set by the police the major asked him how much he wished to be paid he set a price and he was paid that page ninety seven he testified that he had access to restricted police files in declaration as a member of the delta four team and he stated that the his colleagues at the university became suspicious of him because he did not have to take the entry exam for his job he had a salary that was two times higher that of the other people who were being paid and he was a contract worker in a supervisory position which the counsel for mr schiavo says that it really doesn't matter whether he's a police officer infiltrating as an informant or a citizen informing on behalf of the police so that the finding in her view wouldn't make any difference and then she southwest indicating that the organization as a whole was interested in assassinating him and he received threats phone calls and letters with the black ribbon which was well known in the philippines to be indication that he was university and although he did state strange people walked by his house there were no there was no targeting of the house where he lived and furthermore after his last group there's been no future threats and no threats evidence in the record that mr rios was attacked on account of any kind of political opinion imputed or otherwise he clearly clearly did not have a political pinioned motivating his same threats when he was attacked and that was not sufficient turning to the issue of the immigration judge as discretionary decision the government cements that that decision is not inextricably intertwined with the determination that mr we have this not eligible for asylum the immigration judge made a clear determination that there was little likelihood of future persecution based on the facts in the in the record the only fact he cited was the shining path those lost some of his power respectfully your honor it's agree with that statement the immigration judge referred to all the facts in the record he did not go back through a recitation of the facts however  well reasoned and carefully worded decision cites the facts i just mentioned that there were no future threats there were the threats did not continue once when left ike scuse me mr rios left peru he was living with his wife's family and that there were no threats against his wife's family unlike the petitioners in the other cases relied on by m no fear of future persecution because petitioner could be located within the country of pro or because the police could easily arrest the individuals who persecuted petitioner however the grounds for the finding are informed by the fact that the i g determined this was not a political case because this is a political case not talking about a few individuals who were targeting the petitioner we're talking about an organization that's national widespread  the shining path and it's the entire organization that is going to be making efforts to to retaliate against petitioner for his work to thwart their cau afterwards the issue is whether the individuals attacking the petitioner wore doing so because they were impugning political beliefs to him their shooting political beliefs to him because of his activities against him as a police officer discharged from the university he retained his university position after he had completed his tasks identifying the infiltrators and he was received from the university and you never received police for participating in the court's pro bono program thank you
