Legislator summary

AI generated

The Tribunal da Relação of Lisbon dismissed the appeal against the acquittal of the accused. The court held that storing products alone does not prove the intent to sell them to the public, which is required for criminal conviction. Since the prosecution failed to prove this specific intent, the presumption of innocence under the Constitution prevented a guilty verdict.

SUMÁRIO

Não se mostrando provado que a armazenagem de produtos tenha em vista o destino destes ao consumo público, aquele facto: armazenagem, não permite a condenação do agente, por não comprovado o dolo, prova que compete à acusação, face à presunção constitucional de inocência.
