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

The Corte di Cassazione dismissed the asylum applicant's appeal, ruling that the domestic courts correctly found no well-founded fear of persecution. The applicant argued for protection based on past discrimination, but the lower courts determined the evidence did not meet the legal threshold for refugee status. Consequently, the Supreme Court upheld the rejection, emphasizing the strict requirements for establishing a credible threat to life or liberty.
