Questione giuridica chiave
Whether unjust provocation justified mitigation of the sentence under Art. 64 CP.
Decisione estratta
The insults did not justify mitigation because the defendant's violent response was grossly disproportionate and he should have remained calm in his role as a doorman.
Motivazione estratta
Mitigation for unjust provocation requires an intense spontaneous emotional reaction caused by an unjust provocation, but also a certain proportionality between the irritant and the harm inflicted. Here the insults were far less serious than the blows to the victim's face.
