B. On December 23, 2015, the Defendant rendered a demotion to the Plaintiff pursuant to Article 69(1)3 of the Local Public Officials Act due to the following reasons.

2. Whether the instant disposition is lawful

A. The Plaintiff’s assertion 1) The non-existence of the grounds for disciplinary action is merely a part of the process of soliciting the victim to feel sexual humiliation and aversion, and did not make the victim feel sexual humiliation or aversion with respect to his duties. Although the statements made by the victim and witness are inconsistent and contradictory, the citizen human rights protection officer belonging to the Defendant who investigated the instant case’s act was determined as sexual harassment by the Plaintiff, and the Defendant’s disciplinary action was unlawful as it was against the Defendant. 2) The instant disposition of disciplinary action is excessive.
