AI generated

The appellate court dismissed the appeal against the first-instance verdict and ordered a retrial. The defendant argued that the speed measurement occurred outside the built-up area, negating the traffic violation. The court found the existing evidence insufficient because police officers conducting the control had not been questioned, making the truth of the incident unverifiable.
