Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the cantonal court violated the right to be heard by not addressing the claim under Art. 431 CPP for allegedly unlawful coercive measures.
Decisione estratta
Yes. The court relied only on Art. 430 CPP and failed to examine the expressly raised allegation that pre-trial detention and seizure were unlawful under Art. 431 CPP.
Motivazione estratta
Art. 430 CPP applies to otherwise lawful measures rendered unjustified by acquittal; Art. 431 CPP governs unlawful coercive measures and can grant compensation regardless of the criminal outcome. The court had to confront that distinct basis.
