The appellate court partially modified the first-instance judgment by reducing the prison term for defendant G.P. and suspending its execution on a three-year probation period. While the appeals by defendants D.P. and G.P. regarding factual errors and sentencing disproportion were rejected, the court granted relief to G.P. based on the specific circumstances of his case. Consequently, the original verdict was upheld for the other defendants, but the sentence for G.P. was adjusted to reflect a more lenient approach.
