Summary
The article addresses the question at what point in time a request for a bribe and an offer of a bribe is deemed to be accomplished, if it is made to the addressee by means of an electronic mail message with the relevant content or passed on to an intermediary for transmission to the opposite party, i. e., is it completed at the moment of sending the electronic mail message (respectively, at the moment when the relevant communication is made to the intermediary) or at the moment when the addressee has read the message (respectively, when the intermediary has passed the information on to the opposite party)?
Using all the methods of interpretation, the author finds that, while it is possible to find arguments in support of both interpretations, the arguments in favour of a later moment of completion are more convincing.
