Topical problems of proof in criminal cases of misappropriation and embezzlement are considered (Article 160 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). Particular attention is paid to two key and most complex elements of the corpus delicti: the subject of the crime (entrusted property) and the subjective side (direct intent). The legal nature of the «entrusted» property is analyzed; the criteria for its delimitation from other forms of ownership are distinguished.
