Sintesi Legislator
Generato dall'IAThe Pärnu County Court dismissed the defendant's appeal against the first-instance conviction for theft. The prosecution argued that the defendant stole goods worth over 1000 krooni, while the defense claimed the items were never recovered and the value was unproven. The court upheld the conviction because the prosecution successfully proved the theft occurred and the defendant's intent, despite the lack of evidence regarding the specific recovery of the stolen property.
