Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the revised sentencing law and lex mitior required application of the new law
Extrahierter Entscheid
The federal cassation court only reviews the law applicable at the time of the judgment under attack; the later revision did not apply.
Extrahierte Begründung
The challenged judgment preceded entry into force of the 2002 revision of the general part of the Criminal Code, so the old law remained decisive.
