Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appellate court could require an appeal security from the private prosecutor under Art. 383 StPO without special reasons.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. Art. 383 StPO leaves the requirement to the appellate court's discretion and does not impose additional statutory prerequisites.
Extrahierte Begründung
The security mechanism serves to secure possible costs and compensation claims; the law does not define limiting criteria, and the amount demanded was reasonable in the circumstances.
