A defendant shall be punished by imprisonment for not less than one year and six months.

Punishment of the crime

The defendant is a new witness with Jehovah and is a person subject to enlistment in active duty service.

On July 25, 2014, the Defendant received a notice of enlistment in active service under the name of the director of the Daejeon District Military Manpower Office, and did not enlist in the military service by the third day from the date of enlistment without justifiable grounds, even though he received a notice of enlistment in the military service in the name of the director of the Daejeon District Military Manpower Office, which was located in the Dasan Training Office B and 204 (C apartment), from the Defendant’s dwelling in the Republic of Korea (C apartment) on August 25, 2014.

1. Statement by the defendant in court;

1. Application of Acts and subordinate statutes to each subparagraph of a written accusation, notice of enlistment in active duty service, details of postal inquiry, and notification sent to the Military Manpower Administration;

However, under the current positive law that does not provide for special cases that can substitute enlistment in active service against a person who refuses enlistment in the Military Service Act on grounds of religious belief, the above ground alleged by the defendant does not constitute justifiable grounds for refusal of enlistment (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 201Do1759, Nov. 24, 201; Constitutional Court Decision 2008Hun-Ga22, Aug. 30, 201); thus, the above argument by the defendant cannot be accepted.

In light of the fact that, when a defendant is sentenced to a sentence of imprisonment with prison labor for less than one year and six months or a suspended sentence of such imprisonment with prison labor under the current laws and regulations on the reason of sentencing, there is a possibility that the defendant would be again notified of enlistment and a repeated circulation subject to criminal punishment will be repeated, a minimum sentence that meets the requirements for
