Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the defendant acted as a member of a band under Art. 19 ch. 2 let. b LStup
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. A hierarchical organization does not exclude band affiliation; the evidence showed a coordinated association aimed at repeated drug offenses.
Extrahierte Begründung
A band exists when two or more persons manifest a will to commit several independent offenses together, even if roles differ. The defendant and D. jointly operated major cultivation sites, with payment arrangements and shared criminal purpose.
