The court acquitted three managers of a municipal cooperative of embezzlement charges despite evidence of financial losses. The prosecution alleged joint intent and significant damage, but the court found the defendants did not act in concert and the proven losses were not substantial. Consequently, the court ruled in favor of the accused and shifted procedural costs to the state.
