In light of the records, the judgment of the court below and the contents of each evidence pointed out by the court below, we affirm the above judgment of the court below, and there is no error of law as to the application of Article 420 subparagraph 5 of the Criminal Procedure Act due to an error in the evaluation of evidence of the claimant's submission, as alleged in the arguments.
