Gunsan Obstruction of Official Duties Lawyer Explains the Client's Charges
Obstruction of official duties refers to a crime that is established when a person assaults or threatens a public official who is performing official duties and thereby obstructs those duties.
In this regard, the official duties of a public official lawfully performing those duties must be obstructed.
If a public official was performing official duties by unlawful means, obstructing them does not constitute a crime.
In addition, even if no concrete result of actually obstructing the duties occurs, obstruction of official duties is established, and one may be punished.
When 🔗obstruction of official duties is established under the Criminal Act, one may be sentenced to up to five years of imprisonment or a fine of up to 10 million won, and first-time offenders are also at times subject to an actual custodial sentence, so caution is needed to avoid becoming involved.
