Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the complaint period under Art. 31 CP had expired
Decisione estratta
The complaint period began when the complainant learned that the defendant would not reimburse the money, not when he first consulted a lawyer or when she refused to sign acknowledgements of debt.
Motivazione estratta
Knowledge requires reliable awareness of the offence and its perpetrator. The alleged earlier consultation with counsel did not prove the complainant knew of the defendant's dishonest appropriation; the canton court's finding was not arbitrary.
