The prosecutor's appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

1. The lower court dismissed the public prosecution regarding insult of each of the facts charged in the instant case, and acquitted the Defendants as to the violation of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Crimes, which is the remainder of the facts charged.

In this regard, the part of the lower judgment’s dismissal was separately determined as it is, since only the prosecutor appealeds the part of the lower judgment regarding the acquittal, and the prosecutor and the Defendant did not appeal the part concerning the dismissal of the prosecution.

Therefore, the dismissal part of the judgment of the court below is excluded from the scope of the judgment of this court, and only the acquittal part is subject to the judgment of this court.

2. According to the evidence submitted by the prosecutor, the court below found the victim not guilty of the above facts charged on the grounds as stated in its holding, although the defendant sufficiently recognized the fact that the victim had a harm and injury as stated in this part of the facts charged. The court below erred by misapprehending the facts or by misapprehending the legal principles, which affected the conclusion of the judgment.

3. In light of the circumstances acknowledged by the relevant legal principles and the evidence in its holding, the lower court determined that the Defendant’s act as stated in the facts charged was merely a mere expression of emotional humiliation or decentralization rather than a threat of harm and injury, and that the Defendant had the intent of intimidation.

On the ground that it is difficult to see the above charges, the court acquitted the above charges.
