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

The Italian Supreme Court dismissed the asylum application filed by the applicant, who alleged persecution based on political opinion. The applicant argued that returning to their home country would violate Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights due to threats from former colleagues. The court rejected this claim because the applicant failed to provide credible evidence of specific, imminent danger or a well-founded fear of ill-treatment. Consequently, the application was deemed inadmissible as the burden of proof regarding non-refoulement was not met.
