Kernrechtsfrage
Whether Art. 146 StGB applies to the attempted deception of a cantonal tax authority in a tax-release request
Extrahierter Entscheid
Art. 146 StGB does not apply; the alleged conduct falls within cantonal fiscal-criminal law and not general fraud.
Extrahierte Begründung
Fiscal offenses are primarily governed by special cantonal or federal tax-criminal provisions. The privilege is not displaced merely because the canton’s provision does not expressly cover every form of deceit in the release procedure.
