Question juridique clé
Whether the appeal had to be entered into despite the failure to provide ordered security within the deadline.
Solution extraite
No. Because the appellant did not pay the required security within the set period and did not seek an extension or reinstatement, the appeal could not be heard.
Motifs extraits
Under Art. 383 para. 1-2 CPP, the appellate authority may require security from the private complainant; if it is not provided on time, the authority will not enter into the appeal. The record showed no timely payment and no procedural request to cure the delay.
