Questione giuridica chiave
Whether refusing to hear the defendant's aunt violated the right to be heard due to anticipatory assessment of evidence
Decisione estratta
The refusal was not arbitrary, because the proposed testimony would not have changed the evidentiary picture and was largely hearsay.
Motivazione estratta
The lower court had already heard evidence that the victim was pressured by the defendant's relatives to withdraw the complaint. Even if the aunt confirmed the fax, this would not show a false accusation. Therefore, no constitutional hearing violation arose.
