Abstract:
The article examines the issue regarding the completion of the crime of insult. The statements provided in legal literature as well as the relevant case-law have been analysed and summarised. Arguments have been formulated supporting the thesis, according to which damages to the object of the crime constitute an element of the insult under the Criminal Code. The crime is completed not when the victim has perceived the insulting words or actions, but when they have felt their honour or dignity impaired.
Keywords:
insult, Criminal Code, honour and dignity, result of crime, consequences dangerous to society, victim of crime.
