Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Court of Cassation dismissed the asylum application filed by the applicant, who alleged a risk of torture in his home country. The applicant argued that his specific profile warranted international protection, but the lower court found insufficient evidence of individualized persecution. Consequently, the Supreme Court upheld the rejection, ruling that the burden of proof regarding non-refoulement risks remained unmet.
