Question juridique clé
Whether the use of police statements without confrontation violated the right to be heard and confrontation rights.
Solution extraite
No violation; the statements were not given decisive weight, and late confrontation would have had little evidentiary value.
Motifs extraits
Confrontation rights under Art. 6(3)(d) ECHR apply even to police statements, but only decisively when the statements are sole or essential evidence; that was not the case here.
