Italian court dismisses asylum claim where applicant failed to prove non-refoulement risk under Art. 3 ECHR.

The Supreme Court of Cassation dismissed the asylum application filed by an applicant who could not substantiate a risk of torture or inhuman treatment in their home country. The applicant argued that specific political persecution targeted them, but the court found no credible evidence linking their situation to a protected ground under Italian law. Consequently, the claim was rejected because the burden of proof regarding non-refoulement was not met.
