Italian court dismisses asylum claim where applicant failed to prove asylum risk within statutory time limits.

The Court of Cassation dismissed the asylum application because the applicant failed to demonstrate a well-founded fear of persecution within the legally prescribed timeframe. The applicant argued that Italian authorities ignored specific threats, but the court found no evidence of a credible risk at the time of the decision. Consequently, the claim was rejected as it did not meet the statutory requirements for granting protection.
