폭력행위등처벌에관한법률위반(집단ㆍ흉기등상해)등

Text

The judgment of the court below is reversed.

A defendant shall be punished by imprisonment for not less than one year and six months.

except that, for two years from the date this judgment becomes final and conclusive.

Reasons

1. Although the summary of the grounds for appeal is clear that the defendant's escape of the victim's head could harm human life and body, it constitutes dangerous articles under Article 3 (1) of the Punishment of Violences, etc. Act, the court below did not recognize it, which erred by misunderstanding the facts or misunderstanding the legal principles as to "hazardous articles", which affected the conclusion of the judgment.

2. Determination

A. Article 3(1) of the Punishment of Violences, etc. Act includes all articles that can be widely used to inflict harm on human life and body even if they are not a deadly weapon. As such, not only a knife, paper, glass bottle, various tools, vehicles, etc. made for other purposes, but also a chemical drug or a dead animal, etc., if they were used to inflict harm on human life and body (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2002Do2812, Sept. 6, 2002). The issue of whether a product constitutes a "hazardous product" under the above provision should be determined depending on whether the other party or a third party could cause harm to human life or body when using the product in light of social norms in specific cases.

(see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2014Do1894, Jun. 12, 2014).
