The decision of the constitutional court to lift the ban

Colleagues, good afternoon. Comment on (who has the desire) this decision. I'd like to hear your opinion.


Constitutional Court repeals ban on convicted

On September 10, the Constitutional Court of Russia decided to abolish the rule of law, which provides for a life-long ban on being elected to government bodies for citizens previously convicted of serious crimes.

The court decided the country's legislature to amend the law with a clear definition of the period during which the mentioned restriction will be valid. The relevant law was adopted in July 2013. According to the appeal to the Constitutional Court regarding the unconstitutionality of this norm, the authors of the complaint believe that convicts are thus punished twice for the same crime.

Moreover, as the applicants noted, the rule of law was not tied to a specific term of imprisonment, nor did it take into account that it could be conditional. In addition, the criminal record of a potential candidate for government office could be canceled or dropped. As a result, the Constitutional Court came to the conclusion that a lifelong prohibition on running for president may be legal only for citizens serving a life sentence of imprisonment.

Thank you, Alexandra!

It seems to me that an assessment of this decision can only be given from a civilian point of view, since the Plenary knows better, the "Legislator" also makes changes from a civilian submission ... (Only who submits ?? ...)))
You don’t have to go far ...)) The current Mayor of the city of Yekaterinburg, who was elected on September 8, is sentenced to 158 for 2 years ... Cases of bygone days. Not very difficult, but still worthy of attention) ... As practice shows (in the global sense, I mean), a person "in the zone" rarely changes his psychology. On the other hand, if it was 20-30 years ago, and after it was not seen anywhere ... Then why not ?? ... The disputes between the "Humanists" and the "Prosecutors" will be constant. What would I do? ... It is difficult to say because there is little experience ... I can imagine both the first situation and the second. BUT more inclined to "Strict Legislation." It is clear that "Everything is not without sin" ...)) But is it really ALL ??? Moreover, to allow a person to power ... I am against! It means, against the lifting of the ban) ...
Thanks for the info!

Sincerely, Alexander!

And my opinion is the most interesting. I don’t care about all this, that is, I don’t give a damn. I never vote and I won’t do it. These funny performances are not for me, I don’t go and do not watch.

Hello ! I completely agree and support the opinion of those who are against the convicted and even with the extinguished criminal record, to run for power. They are silent about the criminal record. Bro climb into power, and so, and then easy access. Only for me, all this evil, as it was, will remain judged. It doesn’t matter that he committed an accident and didn’t want to kill, but he killed and the criminal record was canceled. This is a direct undermining of the security of the authorities, as the next step will be permission to run for idiots. And there are plenty of them that we have, that you have in the Russian Federation. In Latvia, for example, there is already a precedent when a moron was elected to the government. But he is his own. I don’t understand where the government is looking, this simply should not be. And it does not matter in what aspect such a decision is presented. Wrecking at the highest level. Imagine sitting on a bunk and running for president. With respect, Igor, Riga.

Strongly against it! After all, we are talking about grave and especially grave crimes, it makes us think a lot even when a person is simply hired, and then to the authorities: o In addition, I would definitely keep such a lifelong ban for those convicted of economic crimes! After all, we ourselves thus give him all the tools of milking “work” in our hands! It seems to me precisely from such that the initiative comes, too many recent scandals involving their participation at the federal level!
