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

The Corte di Cassazione dismissed the asylum application filed by the applicant, who alleged a risk of torture in his home country. The applicant argued that Italian authorities failed to conduct a thorough individual assessment of his specific fears, while the state contended the evidence was insufficient to establish a well-founded fear. The court ruled that without concrete proof of persecution or a credible threat to life, the statutory requirements for granting asylum were not met.
