Questão jurídica principal
Whether the CDs could be confiscated as dangerous objects under Art. 58 old Swiss Criminal Code / Art. 69 SCC
Decisão extraída
Confiscation was only reviewable if the CDs were shown to contain racist content and thereby endanger public order; the cantonal findings were insufficient to permit that assessment.
Fundamentação extraída
The Federal Court held that dangerousness may be satisfied by the likelihood of dissemination of racist material, but the lower courts did not concretely examine the contents of the CDs or explain why they fell under Art. 261bis SCC. Without an evidentiary basis, legality of confiscation could not be reviewed.
