Italian Supreme Court dismisses asylum claim where applicant failed to prove credible fear of persecution in Italy.

The Court of Cassation dismissed the asylum application filed by the applicant, who alleged persecution based on political opinion. The applicant failed to provide sufficient evidence linking their specific situation to a well-founded fear of harm in Italy, as required by domestic law. Consequently, the court ruled that the domestic jurisdiction was the appropriate forum for assessing the claim, rejecting the request to transfer the case to Italy.
