CONVENTION AGAINST TORTURE

Article III of the United Nations Convention Against Torture is another tool that may aid aliens fearing torture in their native country. If there are substantial grounds for believing that the person risks torture upon removal to the native country, an applicant may be granted relief pursuant to the convention. Unlike the asylum and Withholding of Removal relief, one need not show persecution based on a specific account (such as race, religion, etc). The standard under the Torture Convention is “more likely than not” that one will be subject to torture if returned to native country. Just like with Withholding of Removal, one may be removed to a third country.v
