Question juridique clé
Whether the lower court's refusal to take additional evidence was arbitrary and violated the presumption of innocence and equality.
Solution extraite
The rejection of the evidentiary motions was not arbitrary; no special circumstances required expert assessment, and the proposed evidence was not relevant or capable of changing the assessment.
Motifs extraits
Credibility of testimony is primarily for the court. Expert evidence on the witness is only needed in exceptional cases. The requested evidence mainly attacked general credibility, while the decisive point was the plausibility of the concrete statements. The file already contained sufficient information.
