Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the refusal to order a psychiatric expertise on imputability violated federal law
Decisione estratta
A psychiatric expertise had to be ordered because there were serious indications that the accused's imputability was doubtful.
Motivazione estratta
The private medical report described a personality disorder with paranoid traits and possible diminished responsibility. In such circumstances, Art. 20 CP requires an expert assessment; the judge may not resolve the doubt by personal evaluation alone.
