Today’s Legal Enlightenment (Thursday, December 16, 2021)-REFUND OF STATE MONEY IS NOT A JUSTIFICATION FOR ACQUITTING THE DEFENDANT
Although the Local Government did not suffer a loss, the levy money used for personal gain was returned by the corruption Defendant before he was investigated and prosecuted by the prosecutor’s office, but the nature of the unlawful act still exists. The refund of state money is not a justification that eliminates the unlawful nature of the Defendant’s actions, nor is it a forgiving reason that erases the guilt of the Defendant.
Supreme Court Decision No. 1401 K/Pid/1992 dated June 29, 1994
