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

The Court of Cassation dismissed the asylum application filed by an applicant who could not substantiate a risk of torture or inhuman treatment in their home country. While the applicant argued that specific conditions in their country of origin violated fundamental rights, the court found the evidence insufficient to establish a well-founded fear of persecution. Consequently, the claim was rejected because the burden of proof regarding non-refoulement risks remained unmet.
