The judgment of the court below is reversed.
A defendant shall be punished by imprisonment for one year.
Provided, That the above punishment shall be imposed for two years from the date this judgment became final and conclusive.
Reasons
1. The sentence imposed by the court below on the defendant (one year of imprisonment) is too unreasonable.
2. The instant crime was committed by the Defendant with the kitchen knife and by threatening a police officer on official duty. Such a crime is necessary for strict punishment in that it harms the foundation of the rule of law and simultaneously causes serious bodily harm to police officers by nullifying the legitimate exercise of public authority.
However, the defendant confessions the crime, is against the mistake, and the degree of damage suffered by the police officer is not much serious.
The defendant seems to have committed the crime of this case in a drunken manner.
The defendant has no specific criminal records, except for those sentenced twice to a fine due to the crime of different types.
The defendant seems to have an opportunity to reflect the defendant's work of detention for about five months.
In full view of such circumstances as the Defendant’s age, character and conduct, the motive, means and consequence of the instant crime, and the circumstances after the crime, the lower court’s punishment is somewhat excessive.
3. In conclusion, the judgment of the court below is reversed in accordance with Article 364(6) of the Criminal Procedure Act, and the defendant's appeal is with merit.
