The following excerpt is from Singh v. Rosen, 16-4150 NAC (2nd Cir. 2020):
First, the agency reasonably relied on the inconsistency between Singh's testimony and his parents' statements regarding his medical treatment after the first attack. See 8 U.S.C. 1158(b)(1)(B)(iii). Singh testified that his family members bandaged him and that he did not go to a doctor. But his parents' statements assert that Singh was treated by a doctor. The agency was not required to credit Singh's explanationthat his mother put a bandage on him because it did not explain the inconsistency about whether he had been treated by a doctor. See Majidi v. Gonzales, 430
