Question juridique clé
Whether Swiss criminal jurisdiction existed for the multiple embezzlement counts.
Solution extraite
Swiss jurisdiction existed because parts of the embezzlement were carried out in Switzerland and the offense was completed there as the funds were transferred to Swiss accounts unknown to the victim.
Motifs extraits
Under Art. 3 and Art. 8 StGB, a crime is committed where its constituent conduct or result occurs. The defendant's transfers and concealment of entrusted funds in Switzerland constituted acts of execution, not mere preparation.
