Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Amar Pal Singh Bakshi and Surneet Kaur, natives and citizens of India, petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' order dismissing their appeal from an immigration judge's ("LJ") decision denying Bakshi's application for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture ("CAT"). Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence findings of fact, including adverse credibility determinations. See Chebchoub v. INS, 257 F.3d 1038, 1042 (9th Cir.2001). We deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.
Substantial evidence supports the IJ's adverse credibility determination based on the inconsistencies between Bakshi's testimony and his asylum application regarding the identity of the alleged persecutors, and the inconsistencies between Bakshi and Kaur's testimony regarding what occurred when the alleged persecutors came to then-home. See id. at 1043; Kin v. Holder, 595 F.3d 1050, 1057 (9th Cir.2010). In the absence of credible testimony, Bakshi's asylum and withholding of removal claims fail. See Farah v. Ashcroft, 348 F.3d 1153, 1156 (9th Cir.2003).
Because Bakshi's CAT claim is based on the same testimony found to be not credible, and he does not point to any other evidence that shows it is more likely than not he would be tortured if returned to India, his CAT claim fails. See id. at 1156-57.
We lack jurisdiction to review the agency's discretionary denial of petitioners' cancellation of removal application. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(B)(i); Bermudez v. Holder, 586 F.3d 1167, 1169 (9th Cir.2009) (per curiam). Petitioners' contention that the agency violated due process by failing to adequately consider their evidence of hardship does not amount to a colorable constitutional claim. See Martinez-Rosas v. Gonzales, 424 F.3d 926, 930 (9th Cir. 2005) ("[T]raditional abuse of discretion challenges recast as alleged due process violations do not constitute colorable constitutional claims that would invoke our jurisdiction.").
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.
