Ilsan Law Firm's Assistance | A Suspended Sentence for Indecent Act by Compulsion With an Ilsan Law Firm's Assistance

The client who visited an Ilsan law firm is a self-employed person who runs a guesthouse.

The client drank together with the victim, who had come to the guesthouse as a guest, in the front yard of the lodging.

While they were drinking, the client sat to the victim's right, put his arm around her waist, and placed his hand on her thigh.

In addition, after they finished drinking, the client proposed showing her a room, laid the intoxicated victim down in his own room, and committed an indecent act on her chest and other areas.

Accused of quasi-indecent act by compulsion and indecent act by compulsion, the client requested the assistance of an Ilsan law firm in order to defend against punishment.

Ilsan Law Firm explained the offenses of 🔗indecent act by compulsion and quasi-indecent act by compulsion.

▶ Criminal Act Article 298 (Indecent Act by Compulsion)

A person who commits an indecent act against another by means of violence or intimidation shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 10 years or by a fine not exceeding 15 million won.

If a person commits an indecent act against another by taking advantage of the victim's state of unconsciousness or inability to resist, rather than by violence or intimidation, the charge of quasi-indecent act by compulsion applies.

▶ Criminal Act Article 299 (Quasi-Rape, Quasi-Indecent Act by Compulsion)

A person who has sexual intercourse with or commits an indecent act against another by taking advantage of the person's state of unconsciousness or inability to resist shall be punished in accordance with Articles 297, 297-2, and 298.

▶ Article 300 (Attempts)
An attempt to commit the offenses under Articles 297, 297-2, 298, and 299 is punishable.

* Because the level of punishment may vary depending on the individual circumstances, for further details please consult an 🔗Ilsan Attorney.

A consultation may be arranged online, by telephone, or through an in-person visit.

The client sat drinking alone with the victim, and because the victim did not refuse contact, he mistakenly believed the feeling was mutual.

The client cooperated with the investigation, and he acknowledged his wrongdoing and showed remorse.

Ilsan Law Firm emphasized that the client pledged never to commit such an offense again and showed genuine remorse.

Ilsan Law Firm argued that, after this incident, the client paid the victim a substantial amount in compensation and reached a settlement.

Through the Ilsan attorney, the client sincerely apologized to the victim and obtained the victim's forgiveness.
