The Italian Supreme Court 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 court found no credible evidence of specific threats. Consequently, the court ruled that the domestic protection mechanisms were sufficient and the claim lacked merit.

Art. 3 CEDU; Art. 103 L. 1915/1939: The court must assess whether the applicant has substantiated a well-founded fear of persecution; a general assertion of risk without specific evidence does not satisfy the requirement for granting asylum protection.
