Key legal question
Whether the Geneva rules and penal provisions provided a sufficient legal basis for the fine
Extracted holding
The fine had a sufficient legal basis; the cantonal regulations had valid constitutional support, and the later ratification of the penal law cured any earlier compositional defect.
Extracted reasoning
The executive had constitutional regulatory power in police matters; the challenged conduct was defined with sufficient precision; and the 1958 legislative ratification of the Geneva penal law validated it in its then-effective form.
