Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the defendant's loan representations constituted fraud with arglist under Art. 146 StGB
Decisione estratta
The false statements were arglistic because the victim's verification was limited, the defendant exploited trust and vulnerability, and the lies were placed so that the victim relied on them without checking.
Motivazione estratta
Arglist exists where false statements are difficult to verify or the offender expects verification to be omitted because of a special trust relationship. The victim was careless but not so negligent as to eliminate criminal protection; he still made separate loan agreements and asked about the reasons for the loans.
