The judgment of the court below is reversed.

A defendant shall be punished by imprisonment for two years.

No evidence shall be recorded in one seizure list with knowledge of seizure.

Reasons

The gist of the defendant's appeal is that the punishment sentenced by the court below (two years of imprisonment) is too unreasonable, but it is considered ex officio before determining the grounds for appeal.

Unlike Article 5-4 (5) of the former Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Crimes (amended by Act No. 13717, Jan. 6, 2016), Article 5-4 (5) of the same Act provides that "where a person who has been sentenced more than three times to imprisonment for a crime under Articles 329 through 331, 333 through 336, and 340 and 362 of the Criminal Act, or for the attempts thereof, again commits such crime, and is punished as a repeated offense, the punishment provided for in paragraphs (1) through (4) shall also be imposed."

Considering that Article 35(2) of the Criminal Act, which is a provision of the general provisions of the Criminal Act, applies again to the punishment for repeated crime under Article 5-4(5)1 of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Crimes, it causes repeated aggravation of statutory punishment for the same reason, Article 5-
