When the defendant does not pay the above fine, 100,000 won.
Reasons
Punishment of the crime
The Defendant stated the facts charged in the indictment on June 13, 2018 as “ June 3, 2018.” However, according to the evidence duly adopted and examined by this court, it is evident that it is a clerical error in the indictment as “ June 13, 2018.”
On the other hand, even if recognized as above, there is no substantial disadvantage in exercising the defendant's right of defense.
As such, correction shall be made ex officio.
At the 7th simultaneous local elections, the person in charge of accounting of D, who was released as a candidate for B member's C constituency, was born.
Political parties, candidates, chief of an election liaison office, director of an election liaison office, accountant in charge, or accountant in charge, shall not disburse election expenses in excess of 1/200 of the amount restricted for election expenses publicly announced by the public announcement of the amount restricted for election expenses under the Public Official Election Act.
Nevertheless, while managing the revenue and expenditure of D election expenses from around March 16, 2018 to June 25, 2018, the Defendant spent KRW 51,364,880 (amount in excess: KRW 3,364,880) in excess of 1/200 (240,000), which is the amount limited to the election expenses for Class B member C, in excess of 48,000.
Accordingly, the Defendant spent election expenses exceeding 1/200 of the restricted amount of election expenses notified.
