Italian Supreme Court dismisses asylum claim where applicant fails to prove non-refoulement risk under Art. 3 ECHR.

The Italian Supreme Court dismissed the asylum application filed by the applicant, who alleged persecution in their home country. The applicant argued that returning would expose them to severe human rights violations, while the state contended the risk was not sufficiently substantiated. The court ruled that the burden of proof remained on the applicant to demonstrate a well-founded fear of persecution, which was not met.
