Crime

Like all other crimes listed in the Criminal code of Russia, the structure of infliction of serious health damage through negligence is composed of four signs. This is a subjective and objective side, subject and, of course, object.

The Health of the victim appears to be in this kind of criminal acts the direct object.

The Subject of crime can only be physical, be sure a responsible person aged at least fourteen.

The Objective side of the act established article 118 of the criminal code, comments are the following. Under this aspect refers to the acts of the accused (suspect, convict) that he made and having a causal connection with caused serious harm. It should be noted that these acts can be expressed not only in the actions of the criminal, but in his inaction.

118 of the criminal code comments

Carelessness and arrogance

Negligence in the criminal law can be expressed in two forms. It is negligence and arrogance. The negligence of the offender is that he, while performing actions, does not foresee the occurrence of the criminal result, but obliged and was able to provide. Usually such a duty to predict the consequences imposed on the person by the laws or duties. For example, the bus driver went in flight, without checking the technical condition of aggregates, resulting in a transport accident. Here the driver did not know and did not want the accident happened, but if he performed his duties, checked the condition of transport, the accident would not have happened.

Carelessness or recklessness are expressed in anticipation of the criminal result. However, the offender believes that such a result it can prevent by their skills or abilities. He also can count that dangerous consequences will not occur due to the actions of third parties or other factors. For example, the bus driver left in flight with faulty brakes, hoping that nothing will happen due to his great experience and ability to drive transport. But the accident still occurred. Here there is criminal arrogance.
