Examination showed that the municipal authorities are either erecting or not erecting state symbols of the Russian Federation - flag and coat of arms. The heads of municipalities were submitted 7 submissions on the elimination of violations of the legislation on state symbols, as well as, according to the prosecutor's office, anti-extremist legislation.
Why checks under the two laws were carried out simultaneously, which was shown by the check observance of the law on countering extremism, for which, in fact, anti-extremist ideas and how many there were, the website of the prosecutor's office of St. Petersburg does not report. But we can assume that these submissions will be included in the relevant reporting. Already, many federal and regional media have written about countering extremism in Kurortny district.
On in our opinion, this is a typical example of imitation of anti-extremist activity. Such cases help to understand what large numbers of acts consist of. prosecutor's reaction in the reports of the prosecutor's office.
