“All -Russian practice shows that criminal liability is electoral: some for the theft of billions of budgetary funds are under house arrest, while others are contained in jail for suspicion of embezzlement of 2.7 million rubles.

Dmitry Petrov

It has been under arrest for almost two years. Despite the fact that the legislation directly prohibits entrepreneurs into custody, ”said Vyazovs in the commentary of the Taiga.info.

“For almost 15 years, the company Dmitry Petrov worked in the advertising market, having a wide range of customers and a reliable reputation. The detention made it impossible to carry out the management of the organization, as a result of which it can stop its activities with all the ensuing adverse consequences. Today, Petrov seized documents confirming the ownership of his property, which has already been ensured by compensation for the alleged harm, ”the authorized person added.

According to the Vyazovs, “the use of such measures causes irreparable damage to business, the state budget also suffers”: “Millions of taxes are lost, instead of agreeing to the security offered for Petrov, the investigation continues to contain it in jail, increasing the unreasonable budget expenditures daily.”

“The illegal criminal prosecution of entrepreneurs today, unfortunately, is one of the most difficult issues, and legal and financial risks for business are extremely destructive,” he believes

. “We heard that the head of state paid special attention to this problem when he emphasized in his recent message to the Federal Assembly.”

According to

data

, which Vladimir Putin cited in his speech, in 2014 by the investigating authorities almost 200 thousand criminal cases on the so -called economic compositions were instituted. 46 thousand out of 200 thousand reached the trial, another 15 thousand cases fell apart in court. The verdict ended only 15% of cases. The absolute majority, 83% of entrepreneurs in which criminal cases were instituted have completely or partially lost business.

“The president also noted that during the investigation on economic compositions, the premises should be used as an extreme measure, and use a deposit of a lower -off wizard, house arrest,” Vyazovovs recalled.

“From the words of the President of the Russian Federation that 200 thousand entrepreneurs are currently under the charge, the conclusion suggests itself: businessmen of a whole region, for example, such as the Novosibirsk Region (in which about 200 thousand business entities are registered), two Altai Territories or three Tomsk regions are under pressure from law enforcement agencies,” the Commissioners said. - What business climate can be discussed, which businessman will want to develop his organization, invest forces and means if he is not sure of his security? ”
