, ‘ The Criminal 1st Division of the Daegu High Court (Chief Judge Jung Sung-wook) announced on the 23rd that it overturned the 50-year prison sentence in the initial trial and sentenced A (29), charged with violating the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes, to 27 years in prison in the appellate court.’,

, ‘ The court stated, “The defendant pledged 100 million won in criminal reconciliation for the male victim, but the victim’s side continues to petition for strict punishment even after the reconciliation. The inquiry conducted during the appellate trial shows a slight improvement in the victims’ condition.”‘,
, ‘ \xa0’,
, ‘ The court further explained, “The crime against the male victim appears to be more of an impulsive act rather than premeditated. The prosecutor’s initial sentencing opinion was for 30 years of imprisonment, and considering the sentencing for similar cases, The original sentence of 50 years is deemed overly severe and unfair.”‘,

Similar to the ‘Busan Kickback Case’, where a man in his 30s in Busan indiscriminately assaulted a woman waiting for an elevator in an officetel to commit sexual assault, the ‘Daegu Kickback Case’ was dubbed as a ‘crime of not asking’ due to its nature.”,
