Italian court dismisses asylum claim where applicant failed to prove well-founded fear of persecution.

The Corte di Cassazione dismissed the asylum application filed by the applicant, who alleged persecution based on specific grounds. The applicant argued that domestic authorities failed to adequately assess the risk of harm, while the state contended the evidence did not meet the threshold for a well-founded fear. The court ruled that the applicant failed to substantiate their claims with sufficient proof, resulting in the rejection of the request for international protection.
