Key legal question
Whether the Federal Criminal Court wrongly treated the unsealing request as moot or left the triage to the Federal Council instead of deciding itself under Art. 69 BStP.
Extracted holding
The Federal Criminal Court did not violate Art. 69 BStP; the request was properly handled within the special inter-authority framework and the Federal Council's access conditions did not preclude the court's ruling.
Extracted reasoning
The disputed materials were not in ordinary private possession but were subject to federal inter-authority cooperation and the Federal Council had assumed custody through a right-aid-like procedure. The lower court could thus limit its order to the materials made accessible by the Federal Council.
