Generato dall'IAThe Supreme Court of Finland dismissed the applicant's appeal against the refusal of a further stay of execution based on an alleged serious insult. The applicant argued that the lower court failed to properly assess the severity of the insult committed by the opposing party. The court determined that the evidence presented did not substantiate the claim of a serious insult under the relevant statute. Therefore, the original decision denying the stay of execution was confirmed as legally correct.
