Summary/Abstract: The paper presents a brief analysis of the concept of public danger of the act and the cases that determine the degree of public danger. The issue related to the circumstances that depend on the decision to take one or another measure of restraint against the accused is commented on. An opinion is expressed that the degree of public danger of the perpetrator can be judged mainly by whether he has a criminal record and what his social characteristics are. It also touches on the important issue of the individualization of punishment and the possibility of imposing a lighter sentence depending on the absence of criminal record.
