Question juridique clé
Whether the appeal had to be entered into despite non-payment of ordered security
Solution extraite
No. Because the appellant did not pay the required security within the deadline and sought neither an extension nor reinstatement, the appeal was inadmissible.
Motifs extraits
Under Art. 383(1)-(2) CPP, the appeal authority may require security from the private complainant; failure to provide it in time leads to non-entry.
