Abstract
Through the documentary-based scientific method, the article is devoted to the study of the criminological features of the personality of a participant of a paramilitary or armed unit (ULPAU) not provided by law. In addition, the formation of his criminological portrait (criminal profile) on the basis of socio-psychological and legal classification features is discussed. The value of the determined parameters of the offender’s characteristics for the formation of negative social and psychological attitudes has been analyzed and their impact on subsequent criminal activity was considered. A number of conclusions of theoretical and applied character have been formulated, among which the following characteristic features of the criminological portrait (criminal profile) of a participant of the ULPAU: man aged 25-35 years who has Ukrainian citizenship and is Ukrainian by nationality, urban resident, single, childless, has general secondary or vocational education, is unemployed, has not been previously convicted; being a member of the armed unit he guarded the checkpoints and the area of location of the units.
