- upholding finding of no persecution when alien was threatened and suffered minor injuries during a home invasion
- affirming BIA’s finding of no persecution where Christian was the target of taunts and threats on several occasions and suffered head injuries when Muslims broke into her home
- declining to consider evidence of country conditions that was not in the record
- “lone occasion” where alien suffered “minor injuries” did not constitute persecution
