Key legal question
Whether the five-year expulsion was adequately justified under proportionality and Article 8 ECHR / Article 13 BV
Extracted holding
The appellate court's reasoning was too brief and failed to address the spouse's possible inability to follow the defendant abroad; the expulsion had to be set aside.
Extracted reasoning
Expulsion must be ordered under Article 63 StGB with balancing of guilt and preventive aims, and where family life is affected the court must weigh private and public interests, including whether the spouse can reasonably follow the offender abroad.
