Key legal question
Whether the 90 day-fine for obstruction and aiding attempted evasion was excessively severe.
Extracted holding
The sentence was not manifestly too severe; the lower court properly weighed culpability, joint offences, and the limited mitigating effect of the marital relationship.
Extracted reasoning
The court held that absence of prior convictions is normally neutral, that the spouse relationship justified only slight mitigation under Art. 305(2) CP, and that persistent denials and shifting blame could be considered in sentencing without violating the right to silence.
