ELEMENTS OF CRIME
INTRODUCTION:
Certain moral sentiments develop in the history of
human society, how they developed is not our present
concern certain of these moral sentiments become of such
interest to the whole group that conduct out ranging then
a made a crime. There is a relation between crime and
immorality. In early societies these crimes arrows out of
the feeling that conduct that offended the diety
threatened the general security. Crime is a changing
concept, dependent upon the social development of a
people that is upon the fundamental interests and values
dominating their common beliefs.
DEFINITION OF CRIME:
It is very difficult to give a correct and precise
definition of crime, Glanville Williams, admitted the
impossibility of having a workable, content based
definition of crime and points out that the definition of
crime is one of the sharp intellectual problems of law.
Russell also admitted that to define crime is a task
which so far has not been satisfactorily accomplished by
any writer.Such a difficulty in ultimate analysis arises due
to the changing nature of crime, an outcome of equally
dynamic criminal and penal policy of a state.
