The First Section of the Regional Administrative Court of Sardinia expressed itself on the appeal brought by a man against the Prefecture of Cagliari for the annulment of a decree ofWeapons Office of the Police Headquarters. Exactly one year ago the latter had rejected the renewal of the hunting license and we therefore arrived at the TAR to settle the question. What exactly happened?
This person was sentenced in 1976 to four months' imprisonment for resisting a public official. The criminal conviction was then followed by the rehabilitation ten years later, the hunter consequently found the reason for denying the license to be wrong. The administrative judges emphasized above all the orientation of the Council of State, according to which rehabilitation has no relevance for the application of the TULPS.
Resistance to public officials is one of the crimes for which the release of the firearms permit can be prevented on the basis of the consolidated act. In this case, you must carefully read the first paragraph of article 43 of the law (license denied in case of culpable crimes). Consequently, the man's appeal was rejected by the TAR and the no to the possession of weapons and ammunition was confirmed.
