MEMORANDUM **
Mulya Sasmita, a native and citizen of Indonesia, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying his application for deferral of removal under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. Lemus-Galvan v. Mukasey, 518 F.3d 1081, 1084 (9th Cir.2008). We review for substantial evidence the agency’s CAT determination and review de novo questions of law. Zheng v. Ashcroft, 332 F.3d 1186, 1193 (9th Cir.2003). We deny the petition for review.
Substantial evidence supports the agency’s determination that Sasmita did not show it was more likely than not that he would be tortured if he returned to Indonesia. See Nuru v. Gonzales, 404 F.3d 1207, 1216 (9th Cir.2005).
Contrary to Sasmita’s contention, the IJ used the correct legal standard and considered the relevant evidence in evaluating his deferral of removal claim. See Zheng, 332 F.3d at 1194.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
