Question juridique clé
Whether the trial court had to order a psychiatric examination due to doubts about the defendant's criminal responsibility under Art. 13 StGB.
Solution extraite
No. On the findings, the trial court had no reason to doubt responsibility and therefore no duty to order an examination.
Motifs extraits
The defendant's claim of a wholly peaceful prior life contradicted binding findings that he had shown a violent and explosive side, especially toward his wife; the attack was linked to jealousy and offended honor, so there was no warranted doubt requiring expert assessment.
