ATC gets criminal sentence for AIRPROX

Via google translate (sorry could not find an English version online).

The Swiss supreme court upheld the criminal conviction of an air traffic controller who caused - apparently through neglect - an AIRPROX incident in 2013. Apparently a Ryanair pilot was also charged and convinced in the same case but he did not appeal.

Is it common practice to refer ATC to criminal justice in such occurrences ? Anyone knows more about this case ?
