Opinion
Guatemalan citizen Danilo Santizo-Monzon petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA), which affirmed an immigration judge’s denial of withholding of removal. We conclude that substantial evidence supports the BIA’s determination that Santizo-Monzon failed to show a clear probability of persecution in Guatemala on account of his membership in a particular social group. See Ortiz-Puentes v. Holder, 662 F.3d 481, 483-84 (8th Cir.2011) (Guatemalans who suffered harm because they refused to join criminal gangs lacked “visibility and particularity” required to constitute particular social group); Wijono v. Gonzales, 439 F.3d 868, 872 (8th Cir.2006) (standard of review). Accordingly, we deny the petition. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
