A Defense Case of the Suwon Law Office | The Suwon Law Office Concludes a Subway Molestation Case with a Suspension of Indictment

The Suwon law office conducted a thorough consultation with the client in order to accurately grasp the circumstances of the case.

The client was returning home by subway after a company dinner.

It was Friday night, so there were many people using the subway, and he was unable to find a seat and was standing while traveling.

In the crowded situation, a woman wearing a short skirt ended up standing in front of the client.

The client, who was intoxicated, could not overcome a momentary sexual impulse and ended up touching the woman’s buttocks.

The woman then reported the client for sexual molestation, and the client visited Daeryun’s Suwon law office to defend the case.

At the Suwon law office, while conducting a consultation with the client, the level of punishment for the case of molestation in a crowded place was also explained in detail.

If a person commits sexual molestation in a public place, he violates the Act on Special Cases concerning the Punishment of Sexual Crimes.

A person who molests another in public transportation, a performance or assembly venue, or any other place where the public is densely gathered shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 3 years or a fine not exceeding 30 million won.

The Suwon law office assisted the client in reaching an settlement agreement with the female victim.

The client continually conveyed his apology through the female victim’s counsel, and the female victim forgave the client.

In response to the client’s efforts, including delivering a settlement amount conveying his apology, the female victim also expressed that she did not wish for him to be punished.

The Suwon attorney appealed for leniency, emphasizing that the client was deeply showing remorse.

The Suwon law office emphasized that the client was a first-time offender with no criminal record whatsoever.

The client committed the offense in this case while heavily intoxicated and in a somewhat clouded state of consciousness.

Because he was intoxicated, the degree of intent regarding the indecent act was low, and no definite awareness existed.

The Suwon attorney appealed for leniency, arguing that the client was reflecting on his wrongful conduct and had ample potential to be reborn as a new person.

The Suwon Law Office was visited by a client who came to Daeryun’s Suwon office seeking assistance to defend a subway sexual molestation case.

In response, Daeryun formed a case team of Suwon attorneys with extensive experience in sexual molestation litigation and provided assistance throughout the overall procedure.

As a result of the case, the prosecution accepted the arguments of the Suwon attorney and issued a suspension of indictment for the client, on the condition that he complete a sexual violence recidivism prevention educational program.
