I'm being investigated by the police on charges of taking subway hidden camera photos. Can you advise me on how to respond during the investigation process? I'm also wondering about the sentence level, and whether I can be released if there are no videos on my phone during the investigation.

The Narcotic Control Act broadly classifies narcotics into narcotics, psychotropic drugs, and cannabis.

▶ Drug possession and use punishment sentencing

① Item A (philopon, heroin, cocaine)
- Possession, ownership, use, transport, management, administration, storage: Imprisonment for not less than 5 years
- Sale, manufacture, import: Indefinite or imprisonment for not less than 5 years

② Item B (fentanyl, morphine, methadone)
- Possession, ownership, use, transport, management, administration, storage: Imprisonment for not less than 3 years
- Sale, manufacture, import: Imprisonment for up to 10 years

③ Item C (zolpidem, etizolam)
- Possession, ownership, use, transport, management, administration, storage: Imprisonment for not less than 1 year
- Sale, manufacture, import: Imprisonment for up to 7 years

Whether to be punished is determined considering which type of drug is involved, what reason led to the charges, and whether there are related prior convictions.

The drug punishment sentence is determined by comprehensively considering the number of administrations, the type of drug, prior convictions, and the contents of the charges (whether it is simple administration, or includes sale or brokerage).

Since the drug punishment sentencing for drug possession and use is very severe, if you are involved in this case, I recommend receiving help from a specialized attorney.
