성폭력범죄의처벌등에관한특례법위반(공중밀집장소에서의추행)
The judgment of the first instance shall be reversed.
The sentence against the accused shall be determined by a fine of KRW 1,00,000.
The above fine shall be imposed on the defendant.
1. The judgment of the court on the erroneous determination of the gist of the grounds for appeal (the defendant only had some physical contact with the victim C in the situation where the inside of subway is mixed with passengers, and did not commit an indecent act with the intent to commit an indecent act), and the judgment of the court on the grounds of unfair sentencing 2.
