Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the defendant's conduct constituted punishable aiding to preparation for a qualified drug offense rather than mere preparatory conduct or attempt.
Decisione estratta
The defendant knowingly and willingly facilitated the planned drug import by providing accommodation and accompanying the organizer; this amounted to aiding under Art. 25 StGB in conjunction with Art. 19 BetmG.
Motivazione estratta
The court held that promising support can already strengthen the principal offender's resolve and constitute psychological assistance. The defendant's help was not an unpunishable attempted aiding, because his conduct actually supported the preparation and execution of the planned import.
