Main Issues

If the ratio of 5:5 is mixed, it is immediately possible to see it as pseudo petroleum products under the Petroleum and Petroleum Substitute Fuel Business Act in a case where only the oil storage tank is manufactured and stored without mixing subpoper and elelacoper as fuel for automobiles, etc. (negative)

Summary of Judgment

Since small and medium-sized petroleum products under the Petroleum and Petroleum Substitute Fuel Business Act can only be used as fuel for automobiles, etc. only when they can be used as fuel for automobiles, etc. only when they are mixed with the ratio of 5:5. Thus, in the stage of manufacturing small and medium-sized petroleum products and storing fuel storage tanks respectively, pseudo petroleum products are not yet completed but merely an half-finished product for pseudo petroleum products. Therefore, if the small and medium-sized petroleum products distributed under Article 1 are not simply manufactured and kept, but the small and medium-sized petroleum products are not simply manufactured and stored in the oil storage tank, and the small and medium-sized petroleum products are not considered as pseudo petroleum products under Article 2 subparag. 10 of the Petroleum and Petroleum Substitute Fuel Business Act even if they were intended to use them as fuel for automobiles, etc., and if it is interpreted as pseudo petroleum products, it violates the principle of no punishment without law as a expanded interpretation of the provisions of law.

2. Determination:

According to Article 2 subparagraph 10 of the Petroleum and Petroleum Substitute Fuel Business Act, pseudo petroleum products shall meet two requirements, such as ① mixing petroleum (chemical) products with other petroleum products, ② manufacturing for the purpose of using or allowing others to use as fuel for automobiles, etc.

In the instant case, according to the records, the smaller and the Helcer itself can only be used as fuel for automobiles, etc., and it can only be used as fuel for automobiles, etc., and pseudo petroleum products can only be used. Thus, pseudo petroleum products are not yet completed at the stage of manufacturing the smaller by using Toluene and Melath, and then storing the smaller in the oil storage tank or storing the Aelcer in the oil storage tank.

The court found the Defendant guilty on the following grounds: (a) the sales of small and medium-sized petroleum products by mixing small and medium-sized petroleum products in one form constitutes the sales of pseudo petroleum products; (b) however, it is possible to use small and medium-sized petroleum products as fuel for automobiles, etc. if so, by mixing small and medium-sized vehicles and Aeluter in 5:5 percent; (c) the Defendant anticipated that small and medium-sized vehicles will be used as fuel for automobiles, etc.; (d) sold small and medium-sized cans and Aeluter 1 can be used as fuel for automobiles, etc.; and (e) the products consisting of Article 1 is not distributed separately, but can be used as fuel for automobiles, etc. if they are simply mixed without the need to undergo a separate processing process, and there is no reason to treat them differently from finished products.

However, if the product is not manufactured and stored in the form of distribution consisting of Article 1 as above, but simply manufactured and stored a smaller in the oil storage tank, and kept a Meelner, even if there was an intention to use it as fuel such as automobiles, the above smaller and Meelth cannot be deemed as a pseudo petroleum product, and if it is interpreted as a pseudo petroleum product, it would violate the principle of no punishment without law as an extended interpretation of legal provisions.

Therefore, the above facts charged on the premise that a smaller manufactured and stored in the oil storage tank and a Meelner are pseudo petroleum products constitutes a case where there is no proof of crime, and thus, the judgment of not guilty under the latter part of Article 325 of the Criminal Procedure Act is to be rendered.

It is so decided as per Disposition for the above reasons.
