AI generatedThe court granted a suspended sentence to the defendant for evading child support obligations, ordering him to pay the arrears and a fine to the victim assistance fund. The prosecution argued that the defendant's failure to pay over six months, totaling at least three monthly installments, endangered the child's basic needs. The court upheld the conviction under Article 209 of the Criminal Code but applied leniency by suspending the execution of the penalty for two years while enforcing the financial obligations.
