Revision of criminal conviction challenged on merits and procedural grounds; partial relief ordering exclusion of knife confiscation.

The Federal Court of Justice (2nd Criminal Senate) dismissed the defendant's appeal as unfounded, yet modified the lower court's judgment by deleting the order for the confiscation of a knife, leaving the remainder of the conviction from the Kassel Regional Court intact. The dispute concerned the legality of the confiscation of an object (a knife) used in a criminal offense, which the defendant challenged via a legal appeal. The court determined that while the underlying conviction and other rulings stood, the specific forfeiture of the knife was unjustified or unnecessary, leading to the removal of that part of the sentence, with the defendant ordered to bear the costs of the legal proceedings.
