Article 476 — Aggravating Circumstances.

Where the person charged with a crime under this Title is a public servant or an official member or scrutinizer of an electoral or polling station, simple imprisonment shall be from one month up to one and a half times the punishment generally prescribed, where the act does not come under a specific provision such as that relating to abuse of powers (Art. 407) or that relating to breach of official secrecy (Art 397). In more serious cases, or where the crime is repeated, the Court may add fine to the punishment of imprisonment.
