One of the most serious crimes is robbery. It poses a threat not only to the property of the victim, but also to his life and health. Robbery has several characteristics that make it possible to distinguish it among similar crimes.
Instructions
Step 1
In accordance with the criminal law (Art. 162 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation), robbery is an attack with the aim of taking possession of someone else's property. It is accompanied by violence towards the victim or appropriate threats. When committing robbery, the degree of violence used must be dangerous to human life or health.
Step 2
Robbery is one of the most serious crimes among thefts according to the degree of its social danger. Robbery should be distinguished from robbery and extortion. In the first case, the open seizure of someone else's property occurs without the use of violence or threats.
Step 3
By committing robbery, the offender throws an open challenge to society. A criminal not only harms the property, life and health of a particular person - he thereby undermines the authority and trust of a person in law enforcement agencies and the state. In this regard, the legislator has endowed robbery with a special corpus delicti, unlike other thefts.
Step 4
The state in our country makes the fight against robbery one of the priorities, since the composition of the robbery is designed in such a way that the moment of the end of the crime is transferred to an earlier stage: the robbery is over from the moment of the attack. The composition is truncated and does not require the onset of socially dangerous consequences.
Step 5
Robbery is quite similar to robbery. However, the main difference is that the robbery has a formal structure. The robbery is considered completed from the moment the action was committed. However, in robbery, violence is applied to easily harm. The inflicted harm, estimated above easy, is robbery.
The robbery is over when the person has a real opportunity to use the property.
Step 6
Robbery differs from robbery in terms of punishment: for robbery there is a stricter responsibility than for robbery.
