Rossinsky and A. A. Tarasov, the subject of which was the issue of the legal nature of a suspect detention in a criminal case. In the paper, the authors ask the following questions: What is the detention of a person on suspicion of committing a crime in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation? From what moment does the detained person acquire the status of a suspect? Is it possible to detain a person before initiating a criminal case?

Amendments to the articles of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation are proposed, and the authors` versions of the definitions of the concepts «detention of a suspect», «the moment of actual detention» and «pre-trial proceedings» are given.

The author gives a detailed analysis of the 1929 Criminal Code paragraphs that pertain to abortion. Analyzing the social indications, the paper also explains the methodological inability to determine the precise number of abortions performed during the 1930s. However, the subject of this paper is not solely an exploration of legal regulations on abortions, but rather the identification of the treatment of women in the Yugoslav Kingdom?s Criminal law from this point of view. Considering that the problem of induced abortions was approached from the existing conservative- patriarchal socio- political position, the press was often the key source for analyzing and documenting this problem. Precisely because of this fact, the paper presents an affair that revolved around the work of gynaecologist Pance Stojanovic in mid-summer 1936. This case showed the deep corruption of the Yugoslav society, but also the involvement of various representatives of power in this affair. It turned out that the patients were women from different backgrounds, but that girls and women from affluent families were far more numerous. Faced with the increasing number of fatalities following induced abortions, doctors at the 17th Congress of the Serbian Medical Association called for changes to the articles of the Yugoslav Criminal Code relating to abortion.

The article is devoted to the problems of qualification of various types of theft of cryptocurrency, theft of funds committed using cryptocurrency. The article deals with crimes related to the illegal sale of drugs for cryptocurrency and raises the question of the absence in the act of the offense under article 1741 of the Criminal code of the Russian Federation. The author studies the concepts of cryptocurrency and property within the framework of existing scientific opinions and analyzes the versatile judicial practice, which, in particular, tends to classify cryptocurrencies as types of property. The goals and objectives of the study are to determine the range of features and properties of the objects of crimes committed with the use of cryptocurrency, as well as committed against the cryptocurrency as an object of infringement. In the preparation of the article, mainly formal logical methods were used, as a result of which the author analyzes social and legal phenomena. The author concludes that the main feature of the evaluation of the object of crimes in sphere of circulation of cryptocurrency, is the presence of his property and cost characteristics, the possibility of determining the damage for the proper qualification of the offense. It is concluded that cryptocurrency may be the subject of corruption offenses on the basis of scientifically substantiated opinions about the presence of the paid nature of the benefit provided by the cryptocurrency. It is argued that the actions associated with the sale of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances for cryptocurrency and subsequent actions to transfer cryptocurrency to Fiat money do not form part of the crime providing for liability for the legalization of proceeds from crime.

Open Question

To the question of the concept of the subject of corruption crimes related to receiving and giving bribes and other types of illegal remuneration Currently, the legal science has not yet developed a unified approach to understanding the subject of corruption crimes related to receiving and giving bribes and other types of illegal remuneration.

At the same time, it remains an open question whether old-style banknotes and coins withdrawn from circulation, but subject to exchange, counterfeit money, or other property seized or restricted in circulation can be classified as such. Based on the study and analysis of judicial practice, the article presents the author’s approach to solving this problem and suggests measures to improve the current legislation.

The Subject

In the article, the author conducted a study of recurrence and recurrence as forms of multiplicity of premeditated murder under aggravating circumstances. The relevance of this work is that this issue has not been the subject of a separate study among modern scholars of criminal law. In the work the author found that the recurrence of premeditated murder under aggravating circumstances, it is necessary to distinguish from a criminal offense under paragraph 13 of Part 2 of Article. 115 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (premeditated murder committed by a person who previously committed premeditated murder, except for murder under Articles 116-118 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine), which is considered a qualifying (aggravating sign) premeditated murder. After all, in the case of premeditated murder by a person who has previously committed premeditated murder, with the exception of murder provided for in Articles 116-118 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, a single crime is necessarily meant. The author also emphasizes that the recurrence of premeditated murder under aggravating circumstances is available only if the person has previously been convicted of premeditated murder, but the conviction has not yet been removed and not expunged. Or when a person has committed premeditated murder under aggravating circumstances provided by the same part of the article of the Special Part of the Criminal Code of Ukraine two or more times, and all episodes are considered in one criminal proceeding. In addition, the paper found that recurrence and recidivism, as forms of multiplicity of premeditated murders under aggravating circumstances, are not mutually exclusive and can be used by the court as a whole. It is concluded that in judicial practice there are many cases when courts do not clarify the issue of expungement or removal of a criminal record when imposing a penalty for repeated intentional homicides in aggravating circumstances. Therefore, the solution of this issue, in our opinion, needs legislative consolidation. After all, the recurrence of premeditated murder under aggravating circumstances is available only if the person has previously been convicted of premeditated murder, but the conviction has not yet been removed and not expunged. Or when a person has committed premeditated murder under aggravating circumstances provided by the same part of the article of the Special Part of the Criminal Code of Ukraine two or more times, and all episodes are considered in one criminal proceeding.
