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

The Supreme Court of Cassation dismissed the asylum application filed by a foreign national who could not substantiate a well-founded fear of persecution. The applicant argued that returning to their home country would expose them to serious harm, but the court found the evidence insufficient to meet the legal threshold for protection. Consequently, the claim was rejected because the applicant failed to demonstrate a credible risk of refoulement under applicable international and EU standards.
