Resumo Omnilex

The Public Prosecutor’s Office applied for authorization to publish images of the accused under §§ 131b and 131c StPO. On 21 April 2016, the 51st Criminal Division of Bonn Local Court denied the application. The court stated that the statutory penalty range is not, by itself, a suitable criterion for deciding whether the seriousness threshold for a public search is met. The assessment requires consideration of the individual case and a balance between the state’s interest in prosecution and the impact on the accused persons’ personal rights. A less intrusive publication on the police intranet should generally be considered first.

Sumário Omnilex

§ 131b Abs. 1 StPO; seriousness threshold for public image-based searches: The applicable penalty range is not a sufficient stand-alone criterion for determining whether the threshold for a public search is met. The decision requires an assessment of the circumstances of the individual case and a proportionality balance between the state’s interest in prosecuting the offence and the interference with the affected person’s personality rights. In applying that balance, the authorities should regularly consider first whether the investigative purpose can be achieved through the less intrusive measure of publication on the police intranet.

Leitsätze

Der Strafrahmen ist kein taugliches alleiniges Kriterium für die Prüfung der Erheblichkeitsschwelle einer Öffentlichkeitsfahndung nach § 131 b Abs. 1 StPO. Maßgeblich ist vielmehr eine Einzelfallbetrachtung und eine einhzhelfallbezogene Abwägung zwischen dem staatlichen Verfolgungsinteresse und dem Eingriff in das Persönlichkeitsrecht des Betroffenen. Dabei ist regelmäßig zunächst eine weniger einschneidende Veröffentlichung im Polizei-Intranet in Bedacht zu nehmen.

Tenor

wird der Antrag der Staatsanwaltschaft auf Veröffentlichung der Abbildungen der Beschuldigten nach §§ 131 b, 131 c StPO abgelehnt

The request to publish the images was denied.

The penalty range alone cannot determine whether the seriousness threshold is met. The court must assess the individual case and balance the interest in prosecution against the intrusion into personal rights; a less intrusive publication on the police intranet should generally be considered first.
