Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appellant, as a Securitrans employee at a railway station, had official status under Art. 110(3) and Art. 285(1) StGB.
Decisione estratta
He did not have criminal-law official status; he was a private employee enforcing the SBB's private property rights, not performing a public task or railway-police function.
Motivazione estratta
Official status requires either institutional or functional public office. Station operation is a public task, but not every station-related activity is. Outside statutory railway-police powers, SBB could only rely on private house rights. The appellant therefore acted for a private security company and not as a public official.
