The court dismissed the defendant's appeal against the conviction for selling hazardous goods and the imposed four-month alternative sentence. The prosecution alleged the defendant knowingly distributed items violating safety regulations, while the defense argued for a lighter penalty based on mitigating circumstances. The appellate court rejected these arguments, affirming that the evidence sufficiently proved the illegal act and the statutory sentencing guidelines were correctly applied.
