The appeal court partially allowed the defense's appeal against the first-instance judgment regarding two defendants accused of assault. The court found the initial qualification of the acts under Article 158 of the Criminal Code incorrect and reclassified the offenses under Article 157, resulting in different sentences for each defendant. Consequently, the court set aside the original verdict regarding the second act and the combined punishment while upholding the remainder of the first-instance ruling.
