Key legal question
Whether refusing to hear witness B. at trial violated the right to be heard.
Extracted holding
No. The witness had already been examined during the investigation in the presence of defense counsel, and further confrontation was not shown to be decisive.
Extracted reasoning
The prior examination was sufficient under constitutional and ECHR standards. The alleged discrepancies concerned dates and time lapse, did not undermine the witness's credibility, and the proposed evidence could not change the trial court's conviction.
