Key legal question
Whether the private dashcam recording was admissible as evidence in the criminal case
Extracted holding
The recording was inadmissible because the police could not have lawfully created the recording themselves at the time; there had been no prior suspicion justifying such surveillance.
Extracted reasoning
The dashcam was an anlassloses, continuous recording that infringed personality and data-protection rights. Because the alleged manoeuvre occurred suddenly and without prior suspicion, admitting the clip would bypass the criminal-process rule against planless evidence gathering.
