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 persecution in his home country. The applicant argued that returning to his nation would violate his fundamental rights, but the lower court found insufficient evidence of specific threats. Consequently, the Supreme Court upheld the rejection, ruling that the burden of proof regarding non-refoulement risks remained unmet.
