Sentencing for Forcible Indecent Act and Special Assault
The offense of indecent act by compulsion refers to a crime that is established when a person commits an indecent act against another by assault or intimidation.
The Supreme Court regards the assault or intimidation referred to in this offense as 'the exercise of unlawful physical force against the other person's body, or the communication of harm to a degree that can arouse fear.'
The offense of special assault refers to a crime that is established when a person commits an assault against another's body by displaying the collective force of a group or a multitude, or while carrying a dangerous object.
If the above criminal charges are found established, punishment may be imposed under the following provisions.
Sentencing range for indecent act by compulsion and special assault
Offense | Sentencing range |
Indecent act by compulsion | Imprisonment for not more than 10 years or a fine not exceeding 15 million won |
Special assault | Imprisonment for not more than 5 years or a fine not exceeding 10 million won |
3. The Indecent Act by Compulsion Lawyer's Case Response Strategy

The indecent act by compulsion attorney closely reviewed the circumstances of the case and established a tailored response plan. In order to bring about a non-referral decision by the police, the attorney argued as follows.
Indecent Act by Compulsion Lawyer Assistance (1): Arguing That No Special Assault Occurred
The victim claims that the client struck the victim's lower back area with a vehicle.
However, in light of the dashcam footage, it can be confirmed that the vehicle's shaking was due to the engine being started.
The attorney emphasized that it cannot be confirmed whether any collision with the victim occurred, and that, regardless of whether the incident took place, there was no intent to commit assault in the first place, so the offense is not established.
Indecent Act by Compulsion Lawyer Assistance (2): Arguing That No Indecent Act by Compulsion Occurred
The victim, who lightly brushed against the client, claims that the client forcibly committed an indecent act on part of her body.
The victim submitted an audio recording as evidence, but other than screaming and reporting the incident, it cannot be concluded that a criminal act occurred.
It was emphasized that this was a report made by the victim, who was angry at the client, with the intent of retaliation.
In the crime of forcible indecent act, an "indecent act" refers to an act that causes sexual shame or disgust and is contrary to sexual moral standards, thereby infringing on the victim's sexual freedom.
Whether an act constitutes an indecent act must be determined by comprehensively considering various circumstances.
4. Result of the Indecent Act by Compulsion Lawyer's Assistance: “Non-referral”
The police, accepting the argument of the forcible indecent act attorney, ultimately issued a 'non-referral' decision.
The client, whose case was concluded with the non-referral decision, expressed deep gratitude to the attorney.
