AI generatedThe appellate court partially modified the first-instance judgment by eliminating the provision for restriction of freedom and substituting it with a six-month prison sentence. The defendant and prosecutor appealed the original ruling, arguing against the specific application of the restriction of freedom measure. The court decided to change the penalty because the statutory conditions for applying a restriction of freedom were not met in this specific case.
