(15)v1 Overview
(16)The crime of defamation of the deceased refers to the act of defaming the deceased by stating false facts for nothing Since it is necessary to indicate false facts, when facts are indicated, the principal crime is not established. This is because even when the fact is indicated, if the principal crime is established, even a fair evaluation of historical figures will be punished, concealing the accuracy and truth of history Protective legal interests are the personal values of lions as historical beings
(17)The crime is aimed only at false facts, so there is no point in indicating true facts. For example, if a monument engraved with the fact that the deceased 乙 murdered the 乙 was erected on the side of the road, but the crime does not constitute. On the other hand, this is the case when the 丙 pointed out false information, saying, “He’s not dead, he’s a bad guy who pretends to be dead after eating money, knowing that he’s dead.”
When you’re alive, if you tell the truth, you can actually be punished for defamation
A person who has died shall be punished only by stating false facts, and shall not be punished when stating facts
