The appeal is dismissed.
Reasons
The grounds of appeal are examined.
The judgment below
Examining the reasoning of the judgment below in light of the evidence duly admitted by the court below, the court below is just in finding that all of the charges of this case were guilty on the charges of causing special obstruction of performance of official duties and the charges of fraud against victims AL and C (excluding the part not acquitted by the court below among the charges of fraud against C). Contrary to the allegations in the grounds of appeal, the court below did not err by misapprehending the legal principles as to the legality of police officers’ official duties.
In addition, pursuant to Article 383 subparagraph 4 of the Criminal Procedure Act, only in cases where death penalty, life imprisonment, or imprisonment or imprisonment without prison labor for more than ten years has been imposed, an appeal on the grounds of unfair sentencing is allowed. Thus, in this case where a more minor sentence has been imposed on the defendant, the argument that the defendant’s punishment is too unreasonable
Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
