The appeal is dismissed.

The grounds of appeal are examined.

Examining the evidence duly adopted and examined by the lower court and the first instance court, it is justifiable to have determined that the lower court found the Defendant guilty of the charge of accepting bribe (including the changed part) among the facts charged in the instant case and of obstructing the exercise of rights to abuse of authority (the preliminary facts charged) on the grounds stated in its reasoning.

In doing so, the lower court did not err by exceeding the bounds of the principle of free evaluation in violation of logical and empirical rules, or by misapprehending the legal doctrine on the relation and consideration of duties in the crime of bribery, or the obstruction of exercising the rights of abuse of authority.

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