Vic Cotroni by the Quebec Crime Commis sion was not specific enough to support valid conviction vague charge is fatal defect the court said in uphol ding Cotronis peat against the conviction which carried oneyear jail sentence Cotroni 65 was jailed in Sep tember 1974 after nine days of testimony described by the commissioners as deliberately in comprehensible rambling vague nebulous and barely concealed refusal to testify Cotroni was released on $25 000 bail the following February pending appeals which were ost in the Quebec courts but fi nally won in Ottawa by slen der majority Four of the nine justices here in dissenting judgment writ ten by Mr Justice LouisPhil ippe de Grandpre said the con clusion of the commissioners was unassailable and the con viction should stand until Cot roni

crime coin mission sentence of one year in jail against Vic Cotroni The crimecomniission liaiid ed down the sentence for con tempt at hearings in July It Photo No comment on records the examiner Thunday Doc 1977 But five justices took the position that the contempt charge wasnt specific enough to give Cotroni fair chance to defend himself against it Although the commissioners had given about examples of vague or evasive answers by Cotroni there is great dif ferencc between an exhaustive list and list of examples In the latter case an accused at tempting to justify himself is at all times subject to being con fronted with other parts of his testimony Cotroni had to be told clearly which questions required better answers if he was to gain re lease and avoid the equivalent of life sentence In contempt cases involving refusal to testify or evasion person may be returned to jail again and again until he an swers directly Precision in criminal charge is not to be regarded as merely matter of form the majority decision written by Mr Justice LouisPhilippe Pi geon said Precision is neces sary if the accused is to be able to defend himself effectively The commission was set up in 1972 to look into organized crime in Quebec Among other things it unearthed badmeat scandal Cotroni was president of Reg gio Food Ltd when he was called as witness In his appeal he also chal
