Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the defendant's confrontation rights were violated because he was not confronted with the women questioned in the investigation.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No violation: the women’s statements were not incriminating and were not used for proof of the offense.
Extrahierte Begründung
The confrontation right applies only where witness statements adverse to the accused are used in the evidentiary assessment. Here the statements were exculpatory or irrelevant and played no role in proving the offense.
