Questione giuridica chiave
Whether taking possession of stolen securities constituted acquisition or only assistance in their sale under Art. 160 StGB.
Decisione estratta
The conduct was to be classified as assistance to sale, not acquisition; receiving the securities only for clarification did not amount to acquisition.
Motivazione estratta
Acquisition requires obtaining one’s own control over the item. If possession was taken merely to facilitate a later sale, the act falls under Veräusserungshilfe, which does not require dispositional control by the accessory.
