Description
Mohammad Musa Yousefi ("Yousefi") filed this petition for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals ("the Board") concluding that Yousefi was deportable and that he was ineligible for asylum and withholding of deportation. The Immigration and Naturalization Service ("the Service") contends that we do not possess jurisdiction to review Yousefis petition. We hold that we have jurisdiction to consider Yousefis petition. On the merits, we agree with the Board that Yousefi is deportable; however, in our view, the Boards decision that Yousefi committed a "particularly serious crime," rendering him ineligible for asylum and withholding of deportation, was arbitrary and must be set aside. Accordingly, we remand for further consideration of whether Yousefi was convicted of a particularly serious crime.
