Hovsepyan v. Holder (unpub)

November 23, 2011

Credibility

Substantial evidence supports the IJ’s adverse credibility determination because Hovsepyan’s inconsistencies concerning the arrest of his brother and the break-in at his family’s home go to the heart of his claim. Hovsepyan’s repeated inconsistencies were not trivial, but rather undermined his version of events “central to” how he was persecuted and why he fled.
