Legislator summary

AI generated

The appellate criminal commission confirmed the annulment of the seizure of a vehicle leased by the accused, reasoning that confiscation under the relevant criminal statute (Art. 59 Ziff. 1 StGB) is inapplicable because the vehicle was never owned by the accused, but rather by the leasing company, the third-party owner, even if the lease payments originated from illegal activities.
