The defendant was ordered to pay 5,000 PLN in compensation to each victim and cover procedural costs totaling 3,301.13 PLN. The court ruled this way because the defendant showed remorse, had a positive criminal prognosis, and the compensation was necessary to partially redress the victims' physical and psychological suffering.
