The appellate court partially upheld the prosecutor's appeal against the first-instance judgment regarding defendant B. K. The court increased the prison sentence from eight to ten months, added a seven-year vehicle ban, and reduced the financial compensation to the victim's fund. This decision was made because the original sentence was deemed disproportionately low and the additional safety measures were necessary given the circumstances.
