Represented a victim of extortion and imprisonment by multiple defendants.

* This is a victim representation success story. ■ Case Overview This case involved multiple defendants who conspired to extort money from victims and imprison some of them. The defendants committed the crimes in an organized manner and caused serious mental and material damage to the victims through continuous intimidation and confinement. The victims decided to take legal action and contacted Ongang Law Firm. ■ Case Issues The main issue in this case was the appropriateness of the sentences handed down in the first trial. The prosecutor appealed that the original sentence was too light, citing that the defendants' crimes were organized and planned, and that the damage was severe, while the defendants appealed that the sentence was too heavy. In particular, the individual assessment of the defendants' degree of involvement and the circumstances after the crime were important issues. From the outset of the case, Onkang's defense team focused on the defendants' individual level of participation, motive for the crime, and post-crime circumstances.
