Kernrechtsfrage
Whether unjust provocation justified mitigation of the sentence under Art. 64 CP.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The insults did not justify mitigation because the defendant's violent response was grossly disproportionate and he should have remained calm in his role as a doorman.
Extrahierte Begründung
Mitigation for unjust provocation requires an intense spontaneous emotional reaction caused by an unjust provocation, but also a certain proportionality between the irritant and the harm inflicted. Here the insults were far less serious than the blows to the victim's face.
