Asylum to one brother does not mean another brother gets it

Ashafi v. Holder, No. 09-4008 (6th Cir. Apr. 12, 2011) (unpublished)
The Court affirmed the denial of this Albanian asylum claim.  The Court found the denial appropriate even though the alien's brother was granted asylum in the Chicago Immigration Court, even though the alien had suffered past persecution.

This case suffered from a few deficiencies.  One is that the brother's asylum application was not submitted to show it was consistent with this case.  The alien also did not seek humanitarian asylum.  Or challenge the significant asylum discrepancies
