Question juridique clé
Whether the criminal seizure of the bank account remained justified pending the investigation.
Solution extraite
Yes. The seizure could be maintained as long as a confiscation remained probable; the suspicion of illicit origin of the funds was still sufficiently plausible.
Motifs extraits
A seizure under Art. 263 CPP is a provisional conservation measure based on likelihood, not proof. The appellant’s arguments did not show arbitrariness or defeat the existing suspicion that the funds could be confiscated.
