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

The Corte di Cassazione dismissed the asylum application filed by the applicant, who alleged a risk of torture in the country of origin. The applicant argued that specific conditions in the destination state violated fundamental rights, but the court found no credible evidence supporting these claims. Consequently, the court ruled that the burden of proof was not met, leading to the rejection of the protection request.
