التستر على مرتكب الجريمة

Abstract

Covering up the perpetrator of the crime means supporting him, sheltering him, and it was said that it is the concealment of the offender in order to avoid punishment to refrain from performing the right. Legal scholars have differed in describing the concealment of the offender, some of them considered concealing the offender as a criminal activity carried out by the owner after the crime was committed without an agreement with the perpetrators before the crime was committed. And some of the scholars have considered it an aid that can be provided to the offender in the form of subsequent assistance after the crime has been completed. This aid is manifested by the concealment of helping the offender by harboring or concealing him. The concealed partner is a partner in the crime, as he contributed to it with a part that does not reach the extent of its material corner or its preparatory work, and in this way it differs from the original perpetrator where part of the practical side was committed, not all, in the sense that concealing the offender is a consequential intervention if the crime preceded him. If the agreement is signed He must, before committing the crime, consider the concealed accomplice, as he is a contributor to the crime in any way, if the concealed person knows in advance.
