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

The Supreme Court of Cassation dismissed the interlocutory order regarding the asylum applicant's claim of persecution in their home country. The applicant argued that returning them would violate non-refoulement principles due to political persecution, while the state contended the evidence was insufficient to establish a well-founded fear. The court ruled that the burden of proof remained on the applicant, who failed to provide credible documentation supporting their fear of return.
