Urias-Orellana v. Bondi · ¶9

Petitioner Urias-Orellana was the sole witness at the removal hearing. He testified that a “sicario” (i. e., hitman) from his hometown had been targeting him since 2016. That year, the sicario shot two of Urias-Orellana's half- brothers and vowed to kill every member of his family. Id., at 332. To escape the sicario's threats, Urias-Orellana, Gamez-Mejia, and G. E. U. G. relocated within El Salvador several times over the next few years. After each move, Urias-Orellana was threatened by men who demanded money and warned that they would leave him like his brothers if he did not pay up. One of the men even physically assaulted Urias-Orellana when he returned to his hometown for a brief visit. Id., at 333.
