Two years for a photo of cannabis: Yarovaya fights drug propaganda
The State Duma will consider in the second reading a bill providing for criminal liability for drug propaganda. The author of the bill, Chairman of the Committee on Security and Anti-Corruption Irina Yarovaya, proposes to ban images of drugs and narcotic plants, as well as their mentions in the media, cinema, books and the Internet. For the image of, for example, a cannabis leaf, Irina Yarovaya proposes to punish not with a fine, as now, but with two years in prison.
