Questione giuridica chiave
Whether a defendant who acted while incapable of culpability must be acquitted in proceedings under Art. 374 f. StPO.
Decisione estratta
No. In proceedings under Art. 374 f. StPO, the court does not indict in the ordinary sense; it records the offense and the lack of culpability, but does not pronounce an acquittal for a culpable offense.
Motivazione estratta
The court distinguished ordinary indictment proceedings from the special procedure for incapable defendants. Because no accusation of culpable wrongdoing is made, an acquittal would be conceptually misplaced. The dispositive part should instead state the offense and the absence of fault, together with any measure.
