The appeal is dismissed.

The grounds of appeal are examined.

The judgment below

Examining the evidence duly adopted by the first instance court, which maintained the reasoning of the judgment below, the court below was just in finding the Defendant guilty of the facts charged of this case on the grounds as stated in its reasoning. Contrary to the allegations in the grounds of appeal, the court below did not err by misapprehending the law on the punishment of violence, etc., or by misapprehending the legal principles on the crime of intimidation, etc. (collectively weapons, etc.)

In addition, Article 3 and Article 2 (1) 1 of the Punishment of Violences, etc. Act, which applies only to the reasons pointed out in the ground of appeal by the defense counsel, cannot be said to be unconstitutional in violation of the principle of legality, the principle of excessive prohibition, or the principle of proportionality, etc.

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