Italian Supreme Court dismisses appeal regarding inadmissibility of asylum claim due to lack of jurisdiction.

The Court of Cassation dismissed the appeal lodged by the applicant against the lower court's decision to reject the asylum request. The applicant argued that the domestic courts lacked jurisdiction to examine the merits of the claim, asserting that only the UNHCR or specific administrative bodies could handle such matters. The court ruled that the domestic judiciary retains full jurisdiction to assess the admissibility and merits of asylum applications under Italian law, thereby rejecting the applicant's procedural objection.
