Questão jurídica principal
Whether a life sentence for assassination was justified under Art. 112 CP
Decisão extraída
The life sentence was not sufficiently justified; the sentencing court had not shown why a determinate sentence would not suffice.
Fundamentação extraída
Although the defendant's culpability was very serious, the comparison with the co-accused and the circumstances still did not explain why a sentence of life imprisonment, rather than a term up to 20 years, was necessary.
