2. As to the third ground of appeal No. 4

However, in order to establish the commencement of the crime of rape, there should be a fact of assault or intimidation as a means of rape, and according to the facts of the judgment below, it is difficult to conclude that the Defendant committed assault or intimidation against the victim as a means of rape solely on the basis of the fact that the victim's chest and her mother, who met himself with the victim's house for the purpose of rape, had sexual intercourse with the victim, was committed. The judgment of the court of first instance cannot be deemed to have commenced as a means of rape by misunderstanding the legal principles on the crime of attempted rape, and it is not necessary to accept the Defendant's appeal pointing this out, and it is also unlawful that the court below dismissed all the Defendant's appeal.

The appeal pointed out this point is justified.

Therefore, the judgment of the court below is reversed, and the case is remanded to the Busan High Court for a new trial and determination. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
