Text
The appeal is dismissed.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined.
On the grounds indicated in its reasoning, the lower court convicted the Defendant of the instant facts charged (excluding the part not guilty of the disposition). Examining the reasoning of the lower judgment in light of the evidence duly admitted, the lower court did not err by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence against logical and empirical rules, or by misapprehending the legal doctrine on the credibility of the victim’
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
