Sexual Assault Crime Prevention Act Article 31

The competent authority of the responsible special municipality or county (city) shall order an Offender to take physical and psychological treatment, counseling, or education, if any of the following occurs to an Offender, and an assessment of the said Offender finds it necessary to require the said Offender to take the respective physical and psychological treatment, counseling, or education:1. the said Offender’s serving of his imprisonment sentence in full, the enforcement of rehabilitative measures for the said Offender, or the compulsory treatment prescribed in Article 37 or Article 38 for the said Offender, is completed. However, if the imprisonment sentence of the said Offender is commuted to community service, the enforcement of physical and psychological treatment, counseling, or education on the said Offender, as ordered by the competent authority of the responsible special municipality or county (city), starts after the said Offender’s imprisonment sentence is commuted to community service;2. an order (by a court) placing the said Offender on parole;3. an order (by a court) placing the said Offender on probation (suspension of sentence);4. an order (by a court) exempting the said Offender from penalty;5. a pardon (granted by the President) pardoning the said Offender; or6. a court order suspending the compulsory treatment for the said Offender pursuant to the proviso of Paragraph 1, and Paragraph 6, of Article 38 of this Act or the proviso of Paragraph 2 of Article 91-1 of the Criminal Code.The preceding Paragraph does not apply to one who has been deported or ordered to leave the territory after committing a crime.The duration for an order subjecting an Offender to take physical and psychological treatment, counseling, or education prescribed in Paragraph 1 of this Article shall be less than three (3) years.
