[DO NOT PUBLISH] IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FILED FOR THE ELEVENTH CIRCUIT U.S. COURT OF APPEALS ________________________ ELEVENTH CIRCUIT No. 06-13648 ________________________ DEC 05, 2007 THOMAS K. KAHN CLERK Agency Nos. A96-096-024 A95-886-844 HENRY ALEJANDRO SALINAS MILLAN, Petitioner, versus U.S. ATTORNEY GENERAL, Respondent. ________________________ Petition for Review of a Decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals _________________________ (December 5, 2007) Before DUBINA and KRAVITCH, Circuit Judges, and GOLDBERG,* Judge. PER CURIAM: _____________________ *Honorable Richard W. Goldberg, United States Court of International Trade Judge, sitting by designation. Henry Alejandro Salinas Millan, a citizen of Colombia, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals s ( BIA ) decision affirming the Immigration Judge s ( IJ ) denial of his claims for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the United Nations Convention Against Torture (CAT).1 After reviewing the record, reading the parties briefs, and having the benefit of oral argument, we conclude that the record evidence is sufficient to establish past persecution. Accordingly, we grant the petition for review and remand this case to the BIA to further consider the case in light of our recent precedents of Sanchez Jimenez v. U.S. Att y Gen., 492 F.3d 1223 (11th Cir. 2007), and Ruiz v. Gonzales, 479 F.3d 762 (11th Cir. 2007). PETITION GRANTED. 1 The IJ s hearing and the BIA s review addressed the consolidated claims of Millan and his two cousins. His cousins later sought voluntary dismissal of their petitions and are no longer part of the case before us. 2
