This is a matter that can perfectly well be resolved at trial,\u201d he maintained.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The prosecutor pointed out that during the trial on the merits, the Public Prosecutor&#8217;s Office will have the opportunity to present evidence and request a possible variation of the legal qualification if it manages to demonstrate all the required elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is not a problem for the Public Prosecutor&#8217;s Office.
