It depends. If it is a very minor case, the victim also understands that the criminal responsibility of the criminal suspect or defendant may not be investigated. If it is not a minor case and the victim expresses understanding, the punishment may be lighter or mitigated, but the punishment cannot be exempted.
For example, if a person intentionally hurts another person and causes serious injuries, even if the victim knows this situation, the perpetrator will be investigated for criminal responsibility (but the court can punish him lightly).
