Italian court dismisses asylum claim where applicant fails to prove non-refoulement risk under EU law.

The Corte di Cassazione 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 expose them to persecution, but failed to provide sufficient evidence of specific threats. The court ruled that without concrete proof of a well-founded fear of persecution, the statutory requirements for asylum protection were not met.
