Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the cantonal court assessed the evidence arbitrarily and violated the in dubio pro reo principle
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The Federal Court found no arbitrary assessment; the appellant's objections were largely appellatory and did not show that the cantonal findings were manifestly untenable.
Extrahierte Begründung
In evidence assessment, the protection of in dubio pro reo under Art. 6(2) ECHR does not go beyond the prohibition of arbitrariness. The cantonal court could rely on the confessor B.'s statements, corroborated by the co-perpetrators' admissions and by the overall consistency of the narrative. Minor inconsistencies did not concern the core events.
