The court denied the request for a fine, ruling that the defendant's voluntary assault on a woman required a prison sentence. The prosecution argued that throwing a glass cup at the victim's head caused severe facial deformity, functional loss of two fingers, and 86 days of illness, constituting high illicitude. The court determined that these injuries, combined with the defendant's insistence on the aggression, signaled intense dolus, necessitating custodial punishment over a monetary penalty.
