Italian court dismisses asylum claim where applicant fails to prove non-refoulement risk under Art. 3 ECHR.

The Supreme Court of Cassation dismissed the interlocutory order regarding the asylum applicant's claim of persecution. The applicant argued that returning to their home country would expose them to severe human rights violations, while the state contended the evidence was insufficient to establish a well-founded fear. The court ruled that the burden of proof remains on the applicant to demonstrate a credible risk of torture or inhuman treatment, which was not met in this instance.
