1. How the Client Came to Seek a Seoul Indecent Act by Compulsion Attorney
The client who sought a Seoul indecent act by compulsion attorney had been reported on a charge of committing an indecent act by compulsion against a work colleague, and requested the assistance of the indecent act by compulsion attorney at the Seoul office to defend against it.
The Client Who Requested Assistance From an Indecent Act by Compulsion Attorney
The account of the client who requested assistance from an indecent act by compulsion attorney is as follows.
On the day of the incident, the client and the complainant left work together and boarded the subway.
The subway was crowded at the time, and it was reportedly difficult even to stand.
There was a little open space nearby, so the client told the complainant to come over to that space, but the complainant did not hear him because of the surrounding noise.
The client therefore reportedly took the complainant's hand to draw her closer to him.
Because of this action, the client was reported on a charge of an indecent act by compulsion, and entrusted the case to the indecent act by compulsion attorney.
What an Indecent Act by Compulsion Is, as Explained by an Indecent Act by Compulsion Attorney
Among the types of sexual offenses, an “indecent act by compulsion” calls for caution, because if there is contact with another person's body regardless of one's intent, a criminal complaint may be filed and a conviction may even result.
An indecent act by compulsion may carry up to 10 years of imprisonment or a fine of up to 15 million won, along with disclosure of personal information and other additional dispositions.
It is therefore recommended to handle the case with the help of an attorney.
An indecent act by compulsion is punishable under Article 298 of the Criminal Act, and the level of punishment is as follows.
▶ 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.
▶ 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 other's condition 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 a crime under Articles 297, 297-2, 298, and 299 shall be punished.
2. Matters of Assistance by the Seoul Indecent Act by Compulsion Attorney
Through consultation with the client, the Seoul indecent act by compulsion attorney gathered evidentiary materials and formed a tailored strategy.
The Indecent Act by Compulsion Attorney's Argument 1 | No Intent
If the client had intended to commit an indecent act by compulsion, he would have tried to take the complainant's hand several more times afterward.
The attorney argued, however, that the client took and guided the complainant by the hand only once, out of consideration, and released it immediately, and that there was no further physical contact, such as taking the complainant's hand again.
The Indecent Act by Compulsion Attorney's Argument 2 | Public Place
A subway car is always open and is a public place where many people gather.
The attorney emphasized that, that being so, it is unpersuasive to claim that the client took and pulled the complainant's hand with the intent of an indecent act by compulsion in a place that is always open.
3. The Police Who Accepted the Seoul Indecent Act by Compulsion Attorney's Argument
The police, who accepted the Seoul indecent act by compulsion attorney's argument, issued a non-referral decision on the client's indecent act by compulsion charge.
Satisfied with the result, the client visited the indecent act by compulsion attorney at the Seoul office to express thanks.
