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

The Corte di Cassazione dismissed the asylum application filed by the applicant, who alleged a risk of torture in his home country. The applicant argued that Italian authorities failed to conduct a thorough individual assessment of his specific fears, while the state contended the evidence did not meet the high threshold for non-refoulement. The court ruled that the domestic administrative decision was legally sound as the applicant could not substantiate a well-founded fear of persecution or inhuman treatment.
