Court convicted defendant of assault with pepper spray, waived criminal penalty due to victim's reciprocal assault, ordered compensation and legal costs.

The court convicted the defendant of violating personal integrity using pepper spray and ordered a fine of 2,000 PLN and legal costs of 1,800 PLN. Although the defendant was found guilty, the court exercised its discretion under Article 217 § 2 of the Criminal Code to refrain from imposing a criminal penalty because the victim reciprocated with a similar assault. The court justified this by noting the victim's response was functionally linked to the initial attack and deemed the victim's retaliation as a form of self-punishment.
