The appeal is dismissed.

The grounds of appeal are examined (to the extent of supplement in case of supplemental appellate briefs not timely filed).

The judgment below

Examining the evidence duly admitted by the court of first instance, which maintained the reasoning of the court below, the court below was just in finding the defendant guilty of violating the Punishment of Violences, etc. Act (a group, deadly weapon, etc.) among the facts charged in the instant case on the grounds stated in its reasoning. Contrary to the allegations in the grounds of appeal, the court below did not err by misapprehending the legal principles as to the meaning of "taking dangerous articles" under Article 3 (1) of the Act on the Punishment of Self-defense and Violences, etc., as alleged

Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
