Q

I've been falsely accused of being a drug courier. What should I do?

Legal IntellectualViews59,716

I'm an employee working at a small to medium-sized company. The company has been continuously requiring overtime but isn't paying any overtime allowance at all. They also demand weekend work, saying 'the company is struggling, we'll compensate later,' without paying wages or providing substitute holidays. When I mentioned resigning, they said they couldn't even pay severance. In this case, is the company violating the Labor Standards Act? If so, what punishment could they face?

Answer to Related Inquiry

There are cases where people get involved in cases after being caught while delivering drugs disguised as simple delivery or delivery part-time work.


Under the so-called 'dolus eventualis,' if you continued the act despite recognizing the possibility of the criminal fact occurring, intent is recognized and you can become subject to drug courier punishment as an aider and accessory.


If high pay was set compared to the work intensity, or if you were in a situation where you could check the contents such as syringes or drugs, the dolus eventualis of a drug courier can be recognized.


According to the Narcotics Control Act, if you transported drugs, you can be sentenced to up to 5 years of imprisonment or a fine of up to 50 million won.


Therefore, if you are involved in a related case, you must respond from the early stages with the help of a drug specialist attorney to avoid unjust dispositions.

It is necessary to consult with a drug specialist attorney from immediately after the incident to identify the exact facts and prepare all possible legal responses.


To avoid excessive punishment due to unfavorable statements during the investigation stage, you must receive the help of a drug specialist attorney.


Please remember that it is essential to closely identify omissions or insufficient content in the investigation stage and then establish a new strategy to lead the case favorably.
