Kernrechtsfrage
Whether provisional sealing had to be ordered during the pending cantonal complaint against the refusal to seal the bank records.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Provisional protection had to be granted because the sealing request was not manifestly unfounded or abusive, and the merits of secrecy protection had to be examined by the competent court.
Extrahierte Begründung
Under Art. 248 StPO, records asserted to be protected must be sealed and the existence of sealing impediments is for the coercive measures court to decide; denying interim protection would render later judicial review ineffective. The lower authority could not deny protection merely because the records came from foreign legal assistance.
