Question juridique clé
Whether Art. 54 CP required a reduction or waiver of punishment because the offender suffered a permanent injury from the offense
Solution extraite
The offender was not heavily enough affected by the consequences of his own act to make punishment inappropriate; refusal to reduce the sentence was permissible.
Motifs extraits
Art. 54 CP applies only where the direct consequences for the offender are so serious that punishment would be inappropriate. The court balanced fault and consequences and found the injuries relatively minor and not life-threatening, while the offender's culpability was significant.
