Questão jurídica principal
Whether the defendant's right to be heard was violated because he could not obtain exculpatory documents from Bulgaria and a witness there was not heard.
Decisão extraída
No. He had not shown that he lacked the means or practical possibility to obtain and submit the documents, and the authorities were willing to receive them.
Fundamentação extraída
He claimed inability to travel, but the record showed regular income and no demonstrated obstacle to contacting his Bulgarian friend or having documents sent. The alleged evidence could therefore have been procured by him.
