This is the account of the client who requested assistance.

On the day of the incident, the client received a call from the victim and visited the victim's studio apartment.

The two then had dinner together and lay down to sleep in the same bed.

The client committed a forcible indecent act by touching a part of the victim's body from behind.

The next morning, the victim contacted the client, and the client acknowledged the wrongdoing and apologized.

The client ultimately became involved in a forcible indecent act case as a result of this incident and requested the help of a sexual molestation attorney.

Among the types of sexual offenses, a “forcible indecent act” calls for caution, because if there is contact with another person's body regardless of one's intention, a criminal complaint may be filed and a guilty verdict may even be reached.

A forcible indecent act may be punished with imprisonment for up to 10 years or a fine of up to 15 million won, together with disclosure of personal information and additional dispositions.

Consulting an attorney experienced in this area to handle the case can therefore be helpful.

A forcible indecent act is punishable under Article 298 of the Criminal Act, and the level of punishment is as follows.

▶ Criminal Act Article 298 (Forcible Indecent Act)

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.

The client is taking sexual offense prevention education in order never to commit such a wrong again.

In this way, the attorney emphasized that the client is making a sincere effort to change.

The client's family is committed to doing their utmost so that the client can re-establish a place as a sound member of society.

The attorney also emphasized that the family conveyed heartfelt apologies to the victim and earnestly pleaded for leniency toward the client.

The client has shown deep remorse for the wrongdoing from immediately after the incident occurred until now, acknowledged the wrongdoing to the victim, and expressed a sincere intention to apologize.

In response, the attorney emphasized that the victim, too, did not wish for the client to be punished.
