Italian court dismisses asylum claim where applicant fails to prove well-founded fear of persecution in Italy.

The Supreme Court of Cassation dismissed the asylum application lodged by the applicant, who alleged persecution in his home country. The applicant argued that Italian authorities failed to provide adequate protection, but the court found no evidence of a well-founded fear of persecution within Italian territory. Consequently, the claim was rejected because the applicant did not demonstrate that Italy would not be safe for him.
