AI generated

The appellate court dismissed the defendant's appeal, upholding the first-instance conviction for attempted damage to a fence. The defendant argued that the court relied on presumptions rather than facts, claiming he intended to restore his land rather than destroy the fence. The court rejected this, citing witness testimony and video footage proving the defendant deliberately tried to break the fence posts.

Art. 124 § 1 k.w.; Art. 2 § 2 k.p.k.: The court may convict based on presumptions of intent when direct evidence is lacking, provided the presumption is logically derived from established facts and the defendant fails to prove a lawful justification like self-help.
