                      On Petition for Review of an Order of the
                          Board of Immigration Appeals

                             Submitted September 23, 2014**

Before:        W. FLETCHER, RAWLINSON, and CHRISTEN, Circuit Judges.

       William Efrain Campos, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions pro se

for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from

an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for asylum. We have

jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence the

agency’s factual findings. Tapia Madrigal v. Holder, 716 F.3d 499, 503 (9th Cir.

2013). We grant the petition for review and remand.

      Substantial evidence does not support the agency’s conclusion that the

gang’s extortion of Campos was based on criminal intent and not his

homosexuality. See id. at 505-06 (record compelled conclusion petitioner’s status

was “one central reason” for mistreatment). Further, substantial evidence does not

support the agency’s conclusion that Campos did not establish that the government

of El Salvador was unable or unwilling to control his persecutors. See Avetova-

Elisseva v. INS, 213 F.3d 1192, 1198-1201 (9th Cir. 2000) (record compelled

conclusion government was unable or unwilling to control mistreatment). Thus,

we grant the petition for review, and we remand Campos’s asylum claim for

further proceedings consistent with this disposition. See INS v. Ventura, 537 U.S.

12, 16-18 (2002) (per curiam).

      PETITION FOR REVIEW GRANTED; REMANDED.
