Legislator summary

AI generated

The Constitutional Court declared inadmissible the appeal filed by two individuals against a criminal conviction for robbery with violence. The applicants argued that the trial court failed to conduct sufficient probative activities, thereby violating their constitutional right to the presumption of innocence under Article 24.2 of the Constitution. The court rejected this claim, ruling that the lower courts had adequately fulfilled their duty to investigate and that the applicants' arguments lacked the necessary legal foundation to constitute a violation of their rights.

Art. 24.2 C.E.; Art. 113 C.P.; The right to the presumption of innocence does not automatically require exhaustive probative activity by the trial court, and a conviction remains valid if the lower courts have conducted a sufficient investigation to establish guilt.
