(1) An indecent act in the crime of indecent act by compulsion

In the crime of indecent act by compulsion, indecent act means an act that causes sexual humiliation or suspicion to the general public and is contrary to good sexual moral sense, and thus infringing on the victim’s sexual freedom. Whether it constitutes such an act ought to be determined carefully by comprehensively taking into account the victim’s intent, gender, age, relationship between the person who committed the act and the victim prior to the said act, circumstances leading to the said act, specific manner leading to the act, objective situation surrounding the act, sexual morality, etc. (see Supreme Court Decision 2001Do2417, Apr. 26, 2002).

(2) Facts and determination of recognition

살피건대, 원심에서 적법하게 채택하여 조사한 증거들에 의하여 알 수 있는 다 음과 같은 사정 즉, 피고인은 이 사건 범행 당시 엘리베이터 안에서 피해자의 볼을 꼬 집고 피해자가 16층에서 내릴 때 자신도 따라 내린 다음 피해자의 어깨를 손으로 잡고 계단을 이용하여 18층 계단으로 피해자를 데리고 간 점, 피고인은 피해자가 극도의 공 포상태에서 피고인에게 '잡아가는 것 아니냐' 고 물었음에도 위와 같이 피해자의 어깨를 잡고 강제로 피해자를 계단으로 올라 가게 한 점, 피고인은 범행 장소에 이르러 바지 와 팬티를 내리고 피해자에게 성기를 보여주고 자위행위를 하였고, 피해자는 겁에 질 려 비상구의 문고리를 잡고서 나가려고 하였던 점, 이 사건 범행 장소는 퇴로가 없는 폐쇄된 장소였던 점 등을 종합하면, 피고인은 7세밖에 안 된 어린 피해자를 폐쇄된 공 간으로 데리고 가 피해자가 꼼짝 못하도록 자신의 실력적인 지배하에 둔 다음 피해자 에게 성적 수치심과 혐오감을 일으키는 자신의 자위행위 모습을 보여 주고 피해자로 하여금 이를 외면하고 피할 수 없게 하였던 것이므로 피고인의 위와 같은 행위는 강제 추행죄에 있어 추행에 해당한다.
