Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs asks to expand police rights

Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs asks to expand police rights
January 17, 2019

The Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs proposes to somewhat expand the powers of the police, and to moderate the importance of public control over the police.

In particular, the following is provided:

• public opinion will cease to be one of the main criteria for an official assessment of police performance (part 6 of article 9 of the Federal law of February 7, 2011 No. 3-FZ " About the police ", hereinafter - the Police Act);
• the police will be entitled to issue an official, mandatory, warning about the inadmissibility of actions that create the conditions for committing crimes and administrative offenses (only the FSB of Russia has a similar right now) (Clause 2, Part 1, Article 13 of the Federal Law of April 3, 1995 No. 40-FZ " About the Federal Security Service ");
• there will be a new basis for inspection - personal and things - in order CAO ( n. 16 h. 1 Article 13 of the Police Act ) This is a suspicion that the inspected citizen has stolen goods (not necessarily with him, but in principle) ( Art. 7.27 Administrative Code of the Russian Federation );
• there will be a right to inspect citizens, their belongings and vehicles within the “borders of territories, in separate sections of the terrain or objects” if a crime has occurred in these territories, places or objects, or just to prevent the smuggling (carrying) of drugs, weapons and the like belongings. For example, it follows from the explanatory note to the project that as soon as the mayor of the capital declared Moscow “the territory within which control over the storage, transportation or transfer of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances and their precursors” ( Decree of the Government of Moscow of December 23, 2008 No. 1187-PP ), then, accordingly, the police, on this basis alone, have every right to inspect citizens, vehicles and transported goods within the borders of Moscow, in order to prevent, detect and suppress drug crimes. Now it is proposed to consolidate this position by law;
• there will be one more reason for penetrating housing against the will of those living - to detain persons accused of committing a crime, as well as those who are either police or eyewitnesses caught at the scene of its commission ( h. 3 tbsp. 15 of the Police Act );
• the police will have the right to open vehicles - for the same reasons as entering residential premises, plus for “hunting” for a drunk driver, for inspecting a car and cargo, if there is reason to believe that there are weapons, drugs or similar objects inside, and also to check messages about the threat of terrorist attack;
• the police will have the right to inspect citizens, their belongings, cars and cargo during the cordon (blocking) of territories (terrain) or objects. The decision on such an inspection is made by the head of the regional police department and the governor jointly;
• the policeman will not be able to introduce himself immediately to the citizen, but wait until the suppression of the crime or administrative offense or the prosecution of the persons who committed them ends ( h. 4 tbsp. 5 Police Act )

In addition, the project 1 proposed to duplicate in Police law the powers that the police have long possessed by virtue of the provisions Code of Criminal Procedure , Administrative Code of the Russian Federation and Federal Law of August 12, 1995 No. 144-FZ " On operational search activities "

Finally, the Russian Interior Ministry proposes to supplement Police law a ban on prosecuting a police officer for acts committed in the performance of duties assigned to the police, and in connection with the exercise of the rights granted to the police, if these actions were carried out on the grounds and in the manner established by laws and other legal acts constituting the legal basis of the police. The establishment of such a ban in a rule of law state seems absolutely pointless: after all, there are no legal grounds for prosecuting the said police officer, and therefore it is impossible in principle. What is the true purpose of this short story, in addition to a general negative assessment of the state of legality in the Russian Federation, is not mentioned in the explanatory note to the draft.

Why hello to lawlessness? Everyone worked and know what it is. It’s just that recently law enforcement officers have been trying to omit so much. When, God forbid, our family and friends suffered: "Why can't the police be tough ?!"
And if on the contrary, then "What do they allow themselves !!!!!"
Let's decide if this is really against crime, then I am only for two hands! And because creatures can come across everywhere, no one is immune from this!
Those who worked in the 90s, especially in the Organized Crime Control Department, know what Yeltsin’s decree on the fight against organized crime is, if they had introduced it now, I can imagine how everyone would have howled! They made some kind of kindergarten from the police and they all just look where one of them slips and begin to relish, who only now does not control them.
I don’t know if I could now work in the system with such an attitude, everyone considers them enemies - the prosecutor’s office, the investigative committee, the FSB, their operatives begin with the first question, how many employees filed the case, and how many were fired! When was this? Together, everyone fought crime, not each other.

Alexander Nikolaevich, good evening! Previously, employees had a different idea, but today a different one. The views have changed. Today's policeman basically - they are people fascinated by power, and whose goal is to catch some poor fellow or an unauthorized migrant in order to lure a lot of money. Do you think that there should be no public control over the police? It may be necessary to review the rights and duties of the police, as well as to tighten the responsibility for illegal actions - this is another matter, but not to prohibit control of the police.

I agree with Alexander. I hope the laws are promoted not only by lobbyists from crime
