❗️BODY INJURY 👊🏻
⚡️Question:
If a citizen commits a crime while intoxicated and inflicts serious bodily injury on another person, can this action be recognized by the court as reprehensible?
⚡️Answer:
In such a case, if the person who caused bodily injury was found to be mentally deranged, he could not be held responsible according to Article 105 of the Criminal Code, but it is a different situation if a sane person commits a crime just on the spur of the moment.
📄 Basically, according to Article 19 of the Criminal Code, a person who commits a crime while intoxicated or under the influence of narcotic drugs, their analogues, psychotropic substances or other substances affecting the mind of a person is not exempted from responsibility. It is stated that such a situation does not constitute a basis for finding a person mentally retarded.
✏️ That is, the person who committed the crime in the state of intoxication was really drunk at the time of committing the crime, was unconscious, did not understand what he was doing, hit him hard saying he was going to hit him slowly, hit him on the neck saying he was going to hit his hand, hit him the fact that he assisted or remained silent does not solve anything in terms of finding him guilty of the crime and does not exempt him from responsibility.
