The Court of Cassation dismissed the asylum applicant's appeal against the rejection of their protection status. The applicant argued that returning to their home country would expose them to inhuman treatment, but the lower court found no credible evidence of such risk. Consequently, the Court upheld the rejection, ruling that the burden of proof regarding non-refoulement was not met.
