A court in Koper is reviewing appeals from both the prosecution and defense regarding the sentencing of David Štruklj, who was convicted of murder in February 2024 at Most na Soči. The prosecution requested a longer prison sentence for the murder, while the defense maintained that the accused was not criminally responsible due to diminished capacity caused by alcohol and cannabis use. During the trial, Štruklj stabbed a 25-year-old employee to death and injured another guest attempting to intervene. The court initially sentenced him to nine years in prison, but acquitted him of the assault charges against the second guest. The prosecution argues that Štruklj’s actions were intentional and that he is responsible for the death, requesting a 13-year-and-six-month sentence. The defense claims the court misinterpreted psychiatric opinions and argues that the sentence is excessive compared to similar cases. Štruklj claimed during his defense that he does not remember the incident and admitted to being heavily affected by alcohol.
