뇌물수수등

Text

The appeal is dismissed.

Reasons

The grounds of appeal are examined.

The lower court found the Defendant guilty of the acceptance of bribe and abuse of authority and obstruction of another’s exercise of rights.

The judgment below

Examining the reasoning in light of the relevant legal principles and the evidence duly admitted, the lower court did not err in its judgment by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence against logical and empirical rules, or by misapprehending the legal doctrine on the determination of the credibility of the donor’s statement in the crime of abusing authority and obstructing another’

In addition, the argument that the judgment of the court below does not constitute a public secret in the crime of divulgence of official duties, or that there is no intention, is not a legitimate ground for appeal since the defendant asserts that it is not a ground for appeal, or that it is not subject to an ex officio decision by the court below.

Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
