Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the applicants were entitled to legal aid under Article 152 OJ
Decisione estratta
No. They did not sufficiently establish indigence and therefore could not obtain legal aid.
Motivazione estratta
Although they claimed to have no income or assets apart from seized Swiss bank accounts, the Court considered that, given the scale and complexity of their affairs, assets outside Switzerland and Mexico were likely. Reliable and complete information about their financial situation was lacking.
