Domandi preliminari
|
1) |
L-Artikolu 1(1) tad-Direttiva 2014/42/UE tal-Parlament Ewropew u tal-Kunsill tat-3 ta’ April 2014 dwar l-iffriżar u l-konfiska ta’ mezzi strumentali u r-rikavat minn attività kriminali fl-Unjoni Ewropea ( 1 ), li jipprevedi l-istabbiliment ta’ “regoli minimi dwar l-iffriżar tal-proprjetà fid-dawl tal-possibbiltà li tiġi kkonfiskata sussegwentement”, għandu jiġi interpretat fis-sens li jippermetti lill-Istati Membri jadottaw regoli dwar konfiska ċivili li ma tkunx ibbażata fuq kundanna kriminali? |
|
2) |
Mill-Artikolu 1(1), moqri fid-dawl tal-Artikolu 4(1) tad-Direttiva 2014/42, jirriżulta li s-sempliċi tressiq ta’ proċeduri kriminali kontra l-persuna li l-proprjetà tagħha tkun is-suġġett tal-konfiska huwa biżżejjed sabiex tinfetaħ u titmexxa proċedura ta’ konfiska ċivili? |
|
3) |
Huwa ammissibbli li tingħata interpretazzjoni wiesgħa tar-raġunijiet previsti fl-Artikolu 4(2) tad-Direttiva 2014/42 li jippermettu konfiska ċivili li ma tkunx ibbażata fuq kundanna kriminali? |
|
4) |
L-Artikolu 5(1) tad-Direttiva 2014/42 għandu jiġi interpretat fis-sens li s-sempliċi eżistenza ta’ sproporzjon bejn il-valur tal-proprjetà u d-dħul legali tal-persuni hija suffiċjenti sabiex tiġġustifika l-konfiska ta’ proprjetà bħala r-rikavat dirett jew indirett ta’ reat kriminali, fl-assenza ta’ kundanna definittiva li tikkonstata li l-persuna wettqet reat kriminali? |
|
5) |
L-Artikolu 6(1) tad-Direttiva 2014/42 għandu jiġi interpretat fis-sens li jipprevedi l-konfiska tal-assi ta’ terzi bħala miżura komplementari jew alternattiva għall-konfiska diretta jew bħala miżura komplementari għall-konfiska estiża? |
|
6) |
L-Artikolu 8(1) tad-Direttiva 2014/42 għandu jinftiehem fis-sens li jiggarantixxi l-applikazzjoni tal-preżunzjoni ta’ innoċenza u fis-sens li jipprojbixxi konfiska li ma tkunx ibbażata fuq kundanna kriminali? |
