State Duma deputies proposed confiscating property from people who were convicted of lying about the Russian army. The initiative will affect those who are found guilty of spreading fakes about the Russian Armed Forces for money. The government commission approved this project.

“The new initiative of deputies (it has not yet been submitted to the State Duma) implies that confiscation will affect those found guilty of the crimes listed above if they were committed for mercenary reasons – for example, if fakes or appeals were distributed for money,” RTVI reports information from the commission.

In addition, in such cases, equipment and instruments for committing a crime belonging to the convicted person may be converted into revenue for the state. For example, a mobile phone, computer or tablet.

Previously, the State Duma prohibited discrediting volunteers Rosgvardia. This bill on criminal liability was adopted in the first reading. In addition, the document provides for punishment for assistance in the execution of decisions of international organizations and other states on the criminal prosecution of Russian National Guard volunteers.
