The appeal is dismissed.

The grounds of appeal are examined.

Since the selection of evidence and the recognition of facts belong to the exclusive authority of the fact-finding court unless they exceed the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence, in light of the evidence duly admitted and investigated by the court below, the court below's decision that the facts charged in this case is recognized is justified.

The fact-finding by the court below did not err in violation of the bounds of the principle of free evaluation of evidence against logical and empirical rules, and it did not err in the misapprehension of legal principles as to acceptance of bribe and blanket crime, which the court below convicted all the facts charged of this case based on such fact-finding

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