The appeal is dismissed.

The grounds of appeal are examined (to the extent of supplement in case of supplemental reasons of appeal not timely filed).

Criminal facts have to be proved to the extent that there is no reasonable doubt (Article 307(2) of the Criminal Procedure Act).

Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
