The 38-year-old Kosovar now faces a prison sentence of 15 years. His lawyer, Mathieu Simonis, has requested that the charges against his client be declared inadmissible. He questions the legality of listening to messages through Sky ECC‘s encrypted system. According to him, the investigating judge’s permission to use private communications was not extended in time.
“I consulted a source who is not a professor of criminal law and has no connection to the file. It was a neutral source that analyzed the legislation and said that the authorizations should be extended in good time,” said the lawyer. ChatGPT is that neutral source.
The lawyer said he used the chatbot indirectly, as a sounding board when preparing his application.
The 24 suspects at trial are accused of importing, exporting, manufacturing and possessing drugs, participating in a criminal organization, forging documents and possessing weapons. A prison sentence of up to 20 years was sought against the accused leaders.
