The public prosecutor’s office has found a woman from the canton of Bern guilty of misleading the administration of justice and favoritism. The 56-year-old was questioned by the cantonal police in March 2023; It was regarding identifying a woman driving a car who had not maintained the required minimum distance from the vehicle in front.
During the questioning, the accused was shown a radar image “in which the driver of the car was clearly visible,” according to the penalty notice, which was available for 20 minutes. Although it was obviously her daughter, the woman, once morest her better judgment, stated that she had been behind the wheel herself and thus falsely blamed herself.
“The accused did this with the intention of protecting her daughter and evading her from prosecution,” the Bern-Mittelland public prosecutor’s office concluded. She imposed a fine of 2,160 francs on the woman, which is set to last two years. However, she has to pay a connection fine of 540 francs and the procedural costs of 500 francs.
