Italian Supreme Court dismisses asylum appeal where applicant failed to prove well-founded fear of persecution.

The Court of Cassation dismissed the asylum applicant's appeal, upholding the lower court's rejection of the claim. The applicant argued that returning to Italy would expose them to persecution based on their political opinions, but failed to provide sufficient evidence of specific threats. The court ruled that the domestic authorities correctly assessed the risk and found the applicant's assertions insufficient to establish a well-founded fear of persecution.
