Sites promoting the criminal subculture want to block extrajudification

Such a bill was introduced to the State Duma by Senator Alexander Bashkin, and the other day the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation recognized Extremist, popular among some Russian citizens, the criminal movement of AUE (“Prisoner Latab course” or “Prisoner criminal unity”) and banned it in Russia.

The deputy chairman of the Federation Council Committee on Constitutional Legislation, Alexander Bashkin, introduced a bill to the State Duma to the State Duma, supplementing the current legislation with such concepts as “criminal subculture”, “activity on the formation and support of the criminal subculture”, and providing for the pre -trial procedure for blocking sites that promote such a subculture. In a commentary to RIA Novosti, he said that:

“Changes are proposed to amend the laws“ On the Basics of the Prevention of Offenses ”and“ On Information, Information Technologies and On Information Protection ”.

According to the senator, the activities of the creation of criminal Internet communities are particularly dangerous in the Russian Federation, as a rule, by persons in correctional institutions. These communities influence minors, promote criminal values ​​and cultivate hatred of law enforcement officials, the author of the bill is confident.

“In order for the control, competent authorities can quickly identify any similar organization among other Internet communities and groups, as well as to stop its activities, a general universal definition of a criminal subculture and activities for the spread of criminal subculture. In the case of adoption of the law, the need for each occasion will disappear long -term trials. In addition, [similar Internet communities] will not have the opportunity to change one letter in the title, to formally get out of the ban, ”said Bashkin TASS.

According to the bill, the criminal subculture is a system of principles, views, lifestyle and norms of behavior shared by a group of persons informally united in order to popularize and promote criminal traditions, attributes of the criminal world, manifestation of intolerance to law -abrupt behavior and justifying criminal behavior. In addition, Bashkin proposes to recognize the activities of the formation and support of the criminal subculture by the public justification of the criminal actions of convicts, the placement of information containing the ideology of the criminal subculture, its symbolism and paraphernalia (with the exception of cases of the formation of a negative attitude to the ideology of the criminal subculture and the absence of signs of propaganda or the justification of criminal subculture), and forced to provide material, financial and other assistance to the convict.

Also, according to the senator, this activity should obstruct the correction of convicts or calls for non-fulfillment of the main duties of convicts, initiating hatred or enmity in relation to law enforcement agencies, justice, prosecutor's office and the penal system, and judges.

The other day, the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation recognized the criminal movement, or subculture, popular among some Russian citizens, “AUE” (means “prisoner of one” or “prison criminal unity”) with an extremist organization. Now, in itself, the involvement in AUE will be interpreted as extremism and punished according to the Criminal Code, and its mention in the media will be required to be accompanied by a note that this is an “extremist organization that is prohibited in the Russian Federation”.

“We consider this ban unreasonable,” says the information and analytical center “OVA”. -Firstly, A.U.E. It does not represent a single organization. Secondly, it is obvious that the ideology of the criminal world (and subcultures “A.U.E.”) is focused on illegal activities and is conceptually incompatible with the realization of the constitutional rights of citizens, but this ideology is not political and not aimed at changing the constitutional system. Therefore, we believe that the activity of its popularization should not be the subject of anti -extremist legal regulation, although in principle it can be criminalized. Perhaps for the organizers of structures operating criminal themes and incriminating to violence, a new criminal norm should be provided, similar in composition to part 1 of Art. 239 of the Criminal Code (creation of a public association, whose activity is associated with violence against citizens). ”

UPD. Lawproproct No. 1009841-7 “On amendments to the Federal Law“ On the Basics of the System for the Prevention of Offenses in the Russian Federation ”and the Federal Law“ On Information, Information Technologies and the Protection of Information ”regarding the implementation of the prevention of criminal subcultures in the Russian Federation” appeared on the State Duma website.

Article 2 of Federal Law 182-ФЗ includes paragraph 9, which significantly expands the list of prohibitions, and you can interpret them not only towards the suppression of the “propaganda of thieves romance:

- public justification, including using the Internet network, criminal actions of persons convicted of committing intentional crimes;

- posting on the Internet of “Internet” information containing the ideology of the criminal subculture, its symbolism and paraphernalia, except when such information is placed in order to form a negative attitude to the ideology of criminal subculture and there are no signs of propaganda or justify the criminal subculture;

- coercion to provide material, financial and other assistance to the convict in the event that such actions do not contain the composition of the criminal act;

- obstruction of the correction of convicts or calls for non -fulfillment of the main duties of convicts;

-the excitement of hatred or enmity in relation to employees of law enforcement, justice, prosecutor's office and the penal system, judges in connection with the execution of the relevant powers;

- organization and preparation of these acts, as well as incitement to their implementation;

-financing these acts or other assistance in their organization, preparation and implementation, including by providing a educational, printing and material and technical base, telephone and other types of communication or providing information services.

Apparently, even after the entry into force of such a law, even those who decide to just joke, using the “thieves” folklore and the corresponding memes, can suffer, since the courts are very subjective in their assessment, and they may not notice the “formation of a negative attitude” in user post.

A item such as “preventing activities on the formation and support of a criminal subculture, including the Internet, is also introduced.

Part 1 of Article 15.1 of the Federal Sakon 149-ФЗ is introduced a paragraph “I”, which, in fact, is prohibited by the placement of the relevant content: “Information aimed at carrying out activities on the formation and support of criminal subculture”.
