The research employs a normative juridical method with statutory and case approaches, utilizing secondary data such as legislation, court decisions, and relevant scientific literature. The results indicate that embezzlement in office is a specific criminal offense involving abuse of trust and authority attached to a position. Criminal liability is determined based on the fulfillment of both objective and subjective elements of the offense, including intent and the resulting losses.
