Vladimir Putin on Crime

 

 


Opposition leader sentenced to notorious penal camp

Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny has begun serving his two-and-a-half-year sentence at a notorious penal camp. Konstantin Kotov, an opposition activist who was freed 1« years at the same prison, said he was subjected to constant intimidation. This included repeated punishment for not saluting a prison guard or borrowing someone's gloves -- with those that his relatives sent him not being delivered -- as well as isolating him from other inmates.

Softens punishment for first-time offenders for hate crimes

Putin has signed a law that will soften the punishment for some hate crimes amid concerns over prison terms handed down to people for "liking" or reposting memes on the Internet. The legislation, signed by Putin, will remove the possibility of a prison sentence for first-time offenders found to have incited ethnic, religious, and other forms of hatred and discord in public, including in the media or on the Internet.
