A man in his 70s who violated the court's restraining order and stabbed his wife several times has been sentenced to a heavier sentence than the first trial at the appeals court.



Criminal Division 6-3 of the Seoul High Court (Chief Justice Yong-ha Kim, Chief Justice Cho Eun-rae) sentenced 8 years in prison after breaking the first trial sentence of 6 years in prison for Mr. I did.



On November 4, last year, Mr. A was charged with attempting to kill his wife, 65-year-old B, by stabbing him in the upper and lower body several times for 1 minute and 20 seconds in an elevator in an apartment in Incheon.



He had Mr. B, who was seriously injured after being stabbed with a knife, open the door of his house and went into the house together, but when Mr. B ran away, he grabbed a weapon and chased him to the playground of the apartment complex.



Person A was suppressed by neighbors at the playground and arrested by the police, and Mr. B was evacuated to 119 and treated.



On May 14, last year, Mr. A received a victim protection order from the Incheon Family Court that prohibits access within 100m from Mr. B's residence, but it was investigated that he violated this and went to B's house to commit the crime.



A, who has alcoholic delusions and depressive anxiety disorder, suspected of having an affair and assaulted his wife B on October 30, 2018, and received a home protection case.



On February 8 of last year, the court sentenced Mr. B to 10 months in prison and 2 years of probation for spraying hot water from an electric kettle on Mr.



The court of first instance sentenced him to 6 years in prison, saying, "It was not only a planned crime, but the crime was heavy because it could have caused the victim to lose his life."



It was judged that it was unfavorable that Mr. A continued to harass Mr. B despite the repeated leniency of the court, but the fact that he committed the crime in a state of mental and physical weakness was also considered for sentencing.



However, the court of appeals accepted the prosecution's argument that the sentence was too low and sentenced him to eight years in prison, which was heavier than the first trial.



The court said, "The accused harassed the accused even after receiving probation due to the victim's plea for mercy.
