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

The Court of Cassation dismissed the asylum application filed by an applicant who could not substantiate a well-founded fear of persecution. The applicant argued that returning to their home country would expose them to severe human rights violations, but the domestic authorities found no credible evidence supporting this claim. Consequently, the court ruled that the statutory requirements for granting asylum were not met due to the lack of proof regarding the risk of refoulement.
