The judgment of the court below is reversed.

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

Seized evidence 7 shall be confiscated.

1. In light of the summary of the grounds for appeal in this case’s sentencing conditions, the lower court’s imprisonment (two years of imprisonment, confiscation, and collection) is too unreasonable.

2. In view of the fact that the defendant re-offendered during the period of repeated crimes for the same kind of crime, and that the medication of narcotics is a serious criminal detrimental to the social and national soundness due to their toxicity, there is a need to strictly punish the defendant.

However, the lower court’s punishment is somewhat unreasonable in full view of all the conditions of sentencing, including the Defendant’s age, character and behavior, environment, motive and circumstance of the crime, circumstances after the crime, etc., as well as the submission of a written confirmation of police officers’ cooperation in investigation that the Defendant arrested a narcotics offender as a result of active cooperation with the investigative agency in arresting the narcotics offender.

3. In conclusion, the judgment of the court below is reversed pursuant to Article 364(6) of the Criminal Procedure Act and the defendant's appeal is with merit.
