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

The Court of Cassation dismissed the asylum application filed by the applicant, who alleged a risk of torture in Italy. The applicant argued that Italian authorities would not protect him from persecution, but failed to provide concrete evidence of specific threats or systemic failures. Consequently, the court ruled that the burden of proof remained unmet, leading to the rejection of the claim.
