trực tiếp bóng đá k+ distinguish between concealing a crime and misprision in Vietnam,

I read in trực tiếp bóng đá k+ newspaper that a case about a girl who was abused by her stepfather "has 9 nails in her head". trực tiếp bóng đá k+ victim's lawyer suggested looking at signs of crime with trực tiếp bóng đá k+ mother. trực tiếp bóng đá k+ lawyer also said that there are signs of criminal omission, it is necessary to look at signs of concealing a crime and misprision of trực tiếp bóng đá k+ mother.

Hello, Lawnet, I would like to answer your questions as follows:

Concealing a crime and misprision are infringements on trực tiếp bóng đá k+ judicial activities of a competent authority. Subjects who commit this act can be prosecuted for penal liability under trực tiếp bóng đá k+ Criminal Code. However, there is still much confusion when distinguishing between concealing a crime and misprision. Below are some criteria to distinguish these two types of crimes:

1. What is concealment of crimes? What is misprision?

According to trực tiếp bóng đá k+ provisions of trực tiếp bóng đá k+Criminal Code 2015, amended in 2017of Vietnam:

Any person who, without prior promises and after knowing that a crime has been committed, harbors trực tiếp bóng đá k+ criminal, conceals trực tiếp bóng đá k+ traces or exhibits of trực tiếp bóng đá k+ crime or commits other acts that obstruct trực tiếp bóng đá k+ discovery, investigation and taking of actions against trực tiếp bóng đá k+ criminal shall bear criminal responsibility for concealment of crimes

Any person who knows that a crime is being prepared, being carried out, or has been carried out but fails to report it shall bear criminal responsibility for misprision
