Question juridique clé
Whether the appellate court arbitrarily assessed the evidence and violated the presumption of innocence by finding that the defendant had driven the vehicle before police interception.
Solution extraite
No. The federal court found the challenge largely inadmissible and, in any event, unfounded because the cantonal court relied on consistent police testimony and gave plausible reasons for preferring it.
Motifs extraits
The complaint was mainly appellatory and did not engage with the contested findings. The cantonal court's weighing of the police officers' concordant and sworn statements, compared with the inconsistent version of the defendant and witness, was not manifestly untenable.
