When a soldier handles confidential information due to his/her occupational needs, he/she has a duty of care to observe the security regulations related to the production, management, keeping, etc. of confidential information and to make maximum efforts to prevent confidential information from being leaked to the outside.

Nevertheless, on November 201, 201, the Defendant neglected to do so, and obtained a loan from Nonindicted 1 of the Presidential Decree on the Military Structure Reform Office of the Ministry of National Defense located in Yongsan-dong 3, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, from the Ministry of National Defense, and on November 21, 201, from the competent authorities of the Ministry of National Defense, and kept the documents “(name 2 omitted)” [the date of the production of documents and the production department 1 omitted) which is a military second grade secret (the date of the document, and the period of protection: the publishing office on December 31, 2020: the date of receipt on December 31, 201; the document “(name 1 omitted)” produced by copying the documents without permission from Nonindicted 2, a civilian visiting the above apartment without any protection, and did not bring about the result of the non-indicted 2’s temporary outflow of the documents at the place.

Since each of them can be accepted,

All facts in the ruling are proven.

Articles 14 and 13(1) of the Military Secret Protection Act (the occupation of the divulgence of military secrets by negligence) and Article 80(2) and (1) of the Military Criminal Act (the occupation of the divulgence of military secrets by negligence in the course of performing duties)

2. Competition;

Articles 40 and 50 of the Criminal Act (Article 40 and 50 (Article 50 of the Criminal Act 1 omitted) : The crime of divulging military through the divulgence of documents; the crime of divulging military through occupational negligence due to the divulgence of documents; and the crime of divulging military through occupational negligence with heavy punishment

3. Selection of punishment;

4. Aggravation of concurrent crimes;

Articles 37 (former part of Article 37, Articles 38 (1) 2, and 50 of the Criminal Act [Aggravation of concurrent crimes with punishment prescribed for the crime of divulging military discipline due to the divulgence of documents with heavy criminal history 1 omitted]

5. Articles 70 and 69 (2) of the Criminal Act to attract a workhouse.

The military secrets referred to in Article 80 of the Military Criminal Act include not only the matters stipulated as the military secrets under the statutes, but also the matters which are objectively and objectively used as the military necessity and are not known from the general public (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decisions 90Do230, Aug. 28, 1990; 99Do4022, Jan. 28, 2000). However, whether there is considerable benefit to the outside not being known should be determined by comprehensively taking into account the process and process of preparation of the data, specific contents of the divulged data, possibility of causing harm to military purposes if the data is known to the outside, the status of the data being used in practice, the degree of disclosure to the outside, the relationship between the citizen's right to know, etc.

The defense counsel and the Defendant asserted that the instant documents were written in the ordinary public as an ordinary letter without a confidential indication, and that they had already lost their value as a confidential fact at the time the documents were leaked.

However, as shown above, military secrets include not only matters that were classified as secrets according to military needs but also matters that have considerable benefits from an objective point of view, which are not known to the general public, and as long as such military secrets meet the nature of military secrets, they cannot be viewed as not military secrets solely on the ground that they were prepared without military secrets.

In addition, according to the fact that the source or performance part of aircraft, such as F-35, F-22, and Lagazter, etc., has been disclosed to the general public through several medias, a set set off, a setnet, and a blogs, etc., but the required performance part, which is expressed in specific figures, such as the maximum speed for the selection of a model for the F-X business set up in the Gun included in the “(Name 3 omitted)” of this case, appears not to have been disclosed to the media, etc. [only the comparison level of operational performance, etc., such as operational performance, which was disclosed to the public in the thesis, etc. for which the defense counsel and the defendant asserted, can only be described as abstract (no specific criteria to determine conformity is presented) and it does not have any specific degree as included in the document of this case as included in the document of this case];

In light of the contents of the investigation report (as of “4th generation aircraft and F-35, F-22”) prepared by the military judicial police officer, and the contents of “(name 3 omitted)” (No. 2), seized “(as of No. 3 omitted)” (as of the date of production of documents and the production department 2 omitted) and the content of the documents included in the criminal facts of this case are the same as that of the military class III secret (as of December 31, 2020), (as of December 31, 2020), and (as of December 31, 2020, some of the F-X operation performance related to the whole operation performance of the F-X project should be included, and thus, it is predicted that the F-X project still is being implemented by the Republic of Korea and expected that the budget of several trillion won will be used in the process of conclusion and negotiation of the contract. Accordingly, the Defendant’s defense counsel’s assertion that the above documents included in the criminal facts of this case should not be accepted.

(v) detection and collection of “(name 34 omitted)”;

On December 2, 2011, the Defendant: (a) obtained six documents, such as “(name 35 omitted)” and “(name 36 omitted)” from Nonindicted 1 of the Presidential Decree on the Military Structure Reform Office of the Ministry of National Defense from Nonindicted 1; and (b) obtained output using Nonindicted 1’s office PC; and (c) carried out the output in his/her office at his/her own discretion in preparation for a security audit on or after February 2012 while the output was kept in his/her office.

Documents printed by the defendant are classified as military secrets of Class III (34 omitted), which include various types of military systems, the organization and distribution of military units and military force, and the organization and distribution of functions of our military units, and the current status of the organization and expulsion of military units, and are likely to cause considerable risk to national security if leaked.

As a result, the defendant was found to have discovered and collected each military secret in a way that does not follow legitimate procedures.

Article 12(1) of the Military Secret Protection Act provides that "a person who detects or collects a military secret shall be punished by imprisonment for a fixed term of not less than one year," and Article 12(2) provides that "a person who knows or possesses a military secret by chance shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than five years or by a fine not exceeding seven million won, if the person who knows or divulges it to another person even though he/she is the military secret." Article 13(1) provides that "a person who handles or has handled the military secret in the course of his/her duty divulges it to another person who becomes aware of or has occupied the military secret in the course of his/her duty, shall be punished by imprisonment for a limited term of not less than three years." Article 13(2) provides that "a person who divulges or has become aware of the military secret in the course of duty shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than seven years if he/she divulges it to another person other than the person under paragraph (1) (Article 13)." The Military Secret Protection Act provides that a person who divulges or handles it by negligence.

If a person who handles military secrets in violation of Article 11 of the Military Secret Protection Act collects data necessary for his/her duties in violation of security regulations, it seems reasonable to apply Article 12(1)(1)(1) of the Military Secret Protection Act to the case of divulging it to another person, and it would result in unreasonable results when compared to Article 13(1)(3) of the Military Secret Protection Act, which applies to the case where a person who handles military secrets collects data necessary for his/her duties in compliance with the security regulations and divulges them while collecting data necessary for his/her duties.

In addition, Article 10 (1) of the Military Secret Protection Act provides a separate provision to punish a person who handles military secrets fails to comply with measures to protect military secrets under the Military Secret Protection Act.

In a comprehensive interpretation of various provisions of the Military Secret Protection Act, it would be reasonable to interpret that a person who searches for and collects military secrets without due process under Article 11 of the Military Secret Protection Act does not include a case where a person who handles military secrets violates the procedure in the course of collecting data as required for his/her business (excluding a case where it may constitute a violation of Article 10 of the Military Secret Protection Act).

In the case of each of the facts charged in this case, comprehensively taking account of the defendant's statement made in this court and the statement written by the prosecutor of each interrogation protocol against the defendant prepared by the military prosecutor, each of the documents included in the facts charged in this case was stored by copying, printing, etc. according to business necessity during the process of handling the defendant's duties, which was brought to the defendant's office to avoid the security audit and to refer again to the duties thereafter, and it was brought to the defendant's office to be used again, and there is no special circumstance to punish the defendant by applying Article 11 of the Military Secret Protection Act, which does not constitute a violation of Article 11

Therefore, since each of the facts charged in this case constitutes a case that does not constitute a crime, each of the facts charged in this case is pronounced not guilty under the former part of Article 380

It is so decided as per Disposition for the above reasons.

The Minister of Justice, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Justice, and the President.
