WHAT IS A CRIME? 

1.A crime is understood as a socially dangerous act ( or omission) directed against the social and state system, the system of economy, property and other rights of citizens or any other act infringing law and order.

2. Crime can be described as acts which the state considers to be wrong and which can be punished by the state. There are some acts which are crimes in one country but not in another. For example, it is a crime to drink alcohol in Saudi Arabia, but not in Egypt. It’s a crime to smoke marijuana in England, but not (in prescribed places) in the Netherlands. It’s a crime to have more than one wife at the same time in France, but not in Indonesia. It's a crime to have an abortion in Ireland but not in Spain.

3. In general however, there is quite a lot of agreements among states as to which acts are criminal. A visitor to a foreign country can be sure that stealing, physically attacking someone or damaging their property will be unlawful. But the way of dealing with people suspected of crime may be different from his own country.

4. In many legal systems it is an important principle that a person cannot be considered guilty of a c rime until the state proves he committed it. Several elements of corpus delicti of the crime should be established against the offender.
