Older brother repeatedly sexually assaulted younger sister under 13... Prosecutors demand 12 years imprisonment

The prosecution has requested a 12-year prison sentence for an older brother who repeatedly sexually assaulted his younger sister under the age of 13.

The Criminal Division 12 of Daegu District Court (Presiding Judge Eo Jae-won) announced on the 14th that the prosecution made this sentencing request during the final trial for Mr. A (in his 20s), who was indicted for violating the Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes and Protection of Victims.

According to the court, Mr. A was tried on charges of sexually assaulting his younger sister under the age of 13 when he was a 14-year-old boy. It was revealed that these crimes continued for more than three years.

The prosecution requested the court to impose not only a 12-year prison sentence on Mr. A but also electronic monitoring, mandatory attendance of educational courses, and a 10-year employment restriction order.

The prosecution stated, "He sexually exploited his young sister over a long period, causing irreparable harm to the victim," and added, "Due to the repetitive nature of the crimes, the severity of the offense is high, and isolation from society is necessary to protect the victim," urging the court to impose a strict sentence.

Mr. A's defense attorney said, "The defendant, who was exposed to obscene media from a young age, was alone with his sister in a single-room dwelling and committed the crime out of sexual curiosity," and added, "The defendant deeply regrets his actions, and the victim has forgiven him, saying 'my brother sincerely regrets it,' so we ask for lenient punishment for the first-time offender."

The sentencing trial for Mr. A is scheduled to be held on the 26th of next month.
