Italian Supreme Court dismisses asylum appeal where applicant failed to prove non-refoulement risk under Art. 3 ECHR.

The Italian Supreme Court dismissed the asylum applicant's appeal, upholding the lower court's rejection of the claim. The applicant argued that returning to their home country would violate Article 3 of the ECHR due to severe persecution, but failed to provide credible evidence of specific threats. The court ruled that the burden of proof remained on the applicant, whose vague assertions were insufficient to establish a well-founded fear of persecution.
