Legislator summary

AI generated

The Constitutional Court declared inadmissible the appeal filed by a convicted rape victim seeking free legal aid and a public defender. The applicant argued that the final conviction violated Article 24 of the Constitution, but the Court held that the assessment of evidence and facts belongs exclusively to the ordinary judiciary. Consequently, the court ruled that constitutional review cannot challenge the factual determinations made by lower courts in criminal proceedings.
