AI generated

The court ruled that the crime of fraud in obtaining subsistence allowance is consummated when the candidacy project is approved, not when the final payment is approved. The prosecution argued the crime was completed only upon payment approval, while the defense contended the initial approval constituted the consummation. The court adopted the defense's view, establishing that the legal interest is infringed at the moment the candidacy project receives approval.
