What is the difference between robbery and robbery?

Robbery is a crime of forcibly seizing public and private property on the spot by violence, coercion or other means. Robbery refers to the act of openly robbing a large number of public and private property for the purpose of illegal possession.

The main differences between robbery and robbery are:

1, the object elements are different. Robbery infringes on complex objects, that is, public and private property ownership and citizens' personal rights, while robbery infringes on a single object, that is, public and private property ownership.

2. The objective aspects of crime are different. Robbery is objectively manifested as the act of robbing public and private property by violence or other means, and the amount of robbing public and private property is not limited. The crime of looting is objectively manifested as the act of openly seizing a large number of public and private property.

Robbery and robbery are crimes against property, and they are closely related to each other:

1. In terms of object elements, both of them infringe on the ownership of public and private property.

2. Objectively speaking, although the crime of robbery uses violence, coercion or other methods, it often causes casualties to the victims. Robbery adopts the method of forcible seizure, which directly affects the robbed property, but sometimes it also leads to serious injury and death.

3. Violence and strength are different in nature, but in a certain sense, violence is also a kind of strength. Therefore, objectively, they not only have similarities in behavior, but also may produce the same harmful results.

Under certain conditions, robbery and looting can be transformed into each other. The provisions of Articles 267 and 269 of the Criminal Law include the case that robbery is transformed into robbery.
