Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Emilio Bustamante-Marinos, a native and citizen of Peru, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge's decision denying his application for asylum, withholding,of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture ("CAT"). Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence the agency's factual findings, Zehatye v. Gonzales, 453 F.3d 1182, 1184-85 (9th Cir.2006), and we review de novo due process claims, Vilchez v. Holder, 682 F.3d 1195, 1198 (9th Cir.2012). We deny petition for review.
Bustamante-Marinos claims past persecution and fears future persecution over a land dispute based on his family membership. Substantial evidence supports the agency's finding that he failed to establish past persecution. See Nahrvani v. Gonzales, 399 F.3d 1148, 1153 (9th Cir.2005) ("persecution is an extreme concept") (citation and internal quotation omitted). Substantial evidence also supports the agency's finding that Bustamante-Marinos failed to establish a well-founded fear of future persecution in Peru. See Santos-Lemus v. Mukasey, 542 F.3d 738, 743-44 (9th Cir.2008) (family members remaining unharmed undermined applicant's well-founded fear of persecution based on family membership), abrogated on other grounds by Henriquez-Rivas v. Holder, 707 F.3d 1081, 1093 (9th Cir.2013) (en banc). Thus, Bustamante-Marinos's asylum claim fails.
Because Bustamante-Marinos failed to establish eligibility for asylum, his withholding of removal claim necessarily fails. See Zehatye, 453 F.3d at 1190.
Substantial evidence supports the agency's denial of Bustamante-Marinos's CAT claim because he failed to establish that it is more likely than not that he would be tortured by or with the acquiescence of a government official if returned to Peru. See Silaya v. Mukasey, 524 F.3d 1066, 1073 (9th Cir.2008).
Finally, to the extent Bustamante-Mari-nos raises a due process argument we reject it. See Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241, 1246 (9th Cir.2000) (requiring error and prejudice to prevail on due process claim).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
