LEGAL CHARACTERISTICS OF CRIMES COMMITTED BY WOMEN AND PROBLEMS IN THEIR QUALIFICATION

The article analyzes the specific legal characteristics of crimes committed by women, their socio-demographic indicators, and classification errors encountered in judicial practice. The study is based on the study of crimes in this category in the theory of criminal law, the Criminal Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan, decisions of the Plenum of the Supreme Court, and court decisions issued in recent years. The results of the discussion showed the need for a gender-sensitive approach to assessing women's crime, as well as the need to take into account psychophysiological and social factors in determining the composition of the crime. The article puts forward proposals for improving existing regulatory and legal norms, and methodological recommendations are given for the clarity and uniformity of the application of law in judicial practice.
