In Krasnoyarsk, the court fined pensioner Alexander Potlitsyn for 10 thousand for going to a rally against pension reform. He was found guilty of participating in an unauthorized protest, which took place on September 9, 2018. The administrative case was instituted on the basis of the report of the senior operative center of "E", drawn up on September 14. The police officer wrote it after studying the video from the event.
“It would be better if they were awarded 40 hours of compulsory work. I am a person in good physical form, even if it has been retired for a long time. I would better work for 40 hours,” Potylitsyn told the Mira Avenue.
According to the pensioner, his monthly pension is less than ten thousand rubles. At the same time, in court he was explained that this is the minimum punishment under this article. Potylitsyn is going to appeal the court decision.
On September 9, on a single voting day, supporters of the opposition Alexei Navalny held the All -Russian protest against raising the retirement age. The detentions and arrests on the eve of the action took place in different regions of Russia. During the rallies on September 9 in Siberia and the Far East, according to Navalny’s headquarters, about 100 people were detained.
In October 2018, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a package of pension reform laws. The retirement age of men will gradually grow to 65 years, and for women - up to 60 years. Putin later proposed to mitigate the reform and introduce criminal punishment for the dismissal of employees, who have left less than five years before retirement. This law was also adopted by the State Duma and signed by the president.
