Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonal courts could impose investigation costs on the complainant for allegedly reckless criminal reports
Solution extraite
Yes. Because the complaints were deemed groundless and the complainant lacked verifiable support, the cost allocations were not arbitrary.
Motifs extraits
Under cantonal criminal procedure, costs may be shifted to the informant when the report is made in a reprehensible or reckless manner. The anonymous photos had no usable evidentiary value, so the authorities could treat the reports as essentially unsupported.
