MEMORANDUM ***
Andry Widyastono, and his wife, Eny Sulisyowati, natives and citizens of Indonesia, petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) affirmance of an Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) denial of their applications for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence an adverse credibility determination, Chebchoub v. INS, 257 F.3d 1038, 1042 (9th Cir.2001), and we deny the petition.
Substantial evidence supports the BIA’s and IJ’s adverse credibility finding based on inconsistencies between Widyastono’s first and second asylum applications, including regarding whether he was ever arrested or assaulted in Indonesia. See id. at 1043.
Because petitioners failed to demonstrate that they were eligible for asylum, it follows that they did not satisfy the more stringent standard for withholding of removal. See Farah v. Ashcroft, 348 F.3d 1153, 1156 (9th Cir.2003).
In addition, substantial evidence supports the denial of relief under CAT. See id. at 1157.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
