: Appellate Law and PracticeCA1: victims of sex-traffickers got to go back home, because they are not politically oppressed
By S. COTUS
Ndreka v. Mukasey, No. 07-2019 (unpublished). In its haste to send an Alabanian back, the First drops this bombshell:
Although Ndreka argues she was subject to persecution based on her political opinion, substantial evidence supports the Board?s determination that Ndreka was targeted by criminals interested in using her for sex trafficking and not because of her political opinion.
Got that? Substantial evidence supports the idea that they wanted her for her body, not her mind. Therefore, she has to go back to whatever country she came from, and because it was criminals that wanted to torture her, the CAT doesn?t apply.
