Whether the appeal had to be entered into despite the appellant's failure to provide security for costs within the deadline.
No. Because the ordered security was not provided in time, the appeal could not be considered and was inadmissible.
Under Art. 383 CPP, the appellate authority may require security from the private complainant; if security is not furnished within the deadline, it will not enter into the appeal. The appellant failed to pay the requested CHF 440 by 2014-08-19.
