Explosions are a real threat for the life, the bodily integrity and the health of thepeople, as well as for the public and private property. The investigation of the crime scene is a
high risk activity because of the complexity of the large scale damages, the large area
involved due to the blast of the explosion and to the partial character of the imprints.
According to the Romanian penal legislation, explosions are not considered to be independent
infringements of the law; yet they are defined as means of producing other infringements as,
for instance, the infringement of destruction in an aggravating stage, as stipulated by the Penal
Code.
