ORIMS.

A crime is understood as a socially dangerous act (or ommission) directed against the social and state system, the system of economy, propety and rights of citizens or any other act that is infringing law and is defind in criminal legislation as dangerous to society.

Criminal legislation states that there can be no criminal responsibility where there is no material element of an act, namely, ita socially dangerous nature. In consrquence, criminal law does not regard as a crime an act or ommission which even if formally containing features of some act covered by criminal law, does not constitute a danger to society on account of its triviality.

Each crime consists of a number of indnvndual elements. Those elements characterise the purpose of the criminal act, the form and method of a criminal action, the character of the criminal act and so forth. The sum total of elements defining a specific crime comprises what is known as the corpus delicti of a crime. The corpus delicti in any act is ground for establishing criminal responsibility against the offender. A person may not be considered quilty of having committed[1] a crime unless the several elements of corpus delicti of a given crime have been established in his acts. In the absence of any element of corpus delicti in the acts of the accused, criminal proceedings may not be instituted, and if instituted, may not be cotinued, and must be stopped at any stage.In pronoucing its sentence the court must above all answer these quections: a) did the act ascribed to the accused actually take place? b) does it contain corpus delicti? c) was the act performed by the accused?

The object of a crime is under criminal law social relations guarded by criminal legislation. This means that all crimes prescribed by the Criminal Code are in the final court aimed against the social relatione taking shape and developing in society. However, each crime has an ummediate object. Thus, murder has as its immediate object humsn life; the ft state, collective or personal property; rowdy i.sm public law and order etc.

A crime may be committed by an act, i. e. The active behaviour of a person, or by an omission, i. e. the non performance of acts which it was his duty to perform (such as failure to use authority).

The subject of a crime is a person who commits the crime and is responsible for it. Only persons who have attained a certain age and are compos mentis can be subjects of a crime. Persons who have reached the age of 16 years before the commision of the crime are criminally responsible; for some crimes (mirder, delistealing, robbery rowdyism with evil intent, etc.) the age is 14 years.

Actually, the age limit for some crimes (committed by persons in office in their official capacity, military crimes, etc.) is considerably higher.

A person who, at the time of the commission of a socially dangerous act, is non compos mentis, i. e. is unable to account for his action or to govern them in consequence of chronic mental desease, temporary mental derangement, weakmindedness or some other morbid state, is not held criminally responsible. Obligatory medical threatment as established by criminal legislation of the state (placing in a general or special mental hospital) may be applied to such a person by an order of the court.

A person who, at the time of the commission of a crime, is compos mentis but who, before a sentence is passed by the court, is affected by mental derangement, is not liable to punishment. By an order of the court compulsory medical treatment may be applied to such a person and on recovery from his illness he may be liable to punishment. A person committing a crime while in a state of drunkenness is not relieved of criminal responsibility.

The law also safeguards the interests of citizens who are summoned to take part in original proceedings.
