Punishment of the crime

A person who intends to divert a mountainous district shall obtain permission from the competent authority.

Nevertheless, the Defendant, without obtaining permission from the competent authority around April 2017, developed a total of 1,172 square meters of a mountainous district and formed access roads by using a drilling machine to grow agricultural crops in Gangwon Hawon-gun B, C, and D.

Accordingly, the Defendant diverted mountainous districts without obtaining permission to convert mountainous districts.
