Key legal question
Whether Art. 19 ch. 4 LStup applied to offenses committed abroad without examining Spanish and Italian law
Extracted holding
Art. 19 ch. 4 LStup applies as a lex specialis; no prior comparison with foreign law was required.
Extracted reasoning
The provision governs offenses committed abroad when the offender is apprehended in Switzerland and not extradited, provided the act is punishable where committed. The cantonal court therefore correctly dispensed with any inquiry into whether foreign law was more favorable.
