Question juridique clé
Whether eventual intent is sufficient for Art. 187 ch. 1 al. 3 CP
Solution extraite
No. The offence requires that the author knowingly commit the sexual act before the child and want the child to perceive it; eventual intent is not enough.
Motifs extraits
The provision covers using the child as a spectator of an act of a sexual nature. Subjectively, the author must intend the child’s perception; accepting the risk of perception does not suffice.
