Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the indictment was too vague in time to satisfy the accusation principle
Extrahierter Entscheid
The temporal imprecision did not violate the accusation principle because the acts were sufficiently individualised in substance and place, and the defendant could clearly understand what conduct was alleged.
Extrahierte Begründung
The indictment's informational function is decisive: minor uncertainty in dates is permissible if the accused can identify the incident and prepare a defense. The references to autumn 1998 and 2002 still allowed clear identification of the incidents.
