Moscow. The 14th of February. INTERFAX - Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a law on confiscation for a number of crimes against the security of the Russian Federation, in particular, for spreading fakes about the Russian army.

The relevant document was published on Wednesday on the official Internet portal of legal information.

The authors of the law were 395 deputies of the State Duma, headed by the chairman of the lower house of Parliament Vyacheslav Volodin.

The law will allow the confiscation of money, valuables or other property used or intended to finance criminal activities against the security of the Russian Federation, as well as, by court decision, to deprive honorary titles for the following crimes: dissemination of deliberately false information about the use of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (Article 207.3 of the Criminal Code); public calls for extremist activities (Article 280 of the Criminal Code).

This also includes such crimes as public calls for actions aimed at violating the integrity of the Russian Federation (Article 280.1 of the Criminal Code); public actions aimed at discrediting the use of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (Article 280.3 of the Criminal Code); public calls for activities directed against the security of the state (Article 280.4 of the Criminal Code),

This will also apply to calls for the imposition of sanctions against the Russian Federation and its citizens (Article 284.2 of the Criminal Code); assistance in the execution of decisions of international organizations in which the Russian Federation does not participate, or foreign state bodies (Article 284.3 of the Criminal Code); rehabilitation of Nazism (Article 354.1 of the Criminal Code).

Pavel Krasheninnikov, Chairman of the State Duma Committee on State Construction and Legislation, commenting on the law, previously stated that the confiscation proposed in the draft law should not be confused with measures used in Soviet times.

"This confiscation, "glorified" both in feature films and in literature, and as soon as we remember it, such confiscation is not supposed, we have no desire to return to Soviet confiscation. We don't need it," Krasheninnikov told reporters.

He explained that "confiscation exists as a "type of punishment" and as a "measure" of a criminal nature." "As a 'measure', this is when the object of the crime itself and the money received from this crime are confiscated; as a 'type of punishment', this is Soviet history, and we do not want to return to it," the head of the committee said.

According to the first deputy chairman of the committee, Irina Pankina, the law proposes to establish the confiscation of property obtained as a result of the dissemination of fakes about the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and public calls for activities directed against the security of the state, "if they are committed for selfish motives, as well as property used to finance such activities."

In addition, the law amends Article 280.4 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, thanks to which all crimes of sabotage will be attributed to activities directed against the security of the Russian Federation.

Also, Article 280.4 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation is supplemented by two new qualifying signs that strengthen responsibility: for selfish motives or for hire, as well as for reasons of political, national, religious hatred or enmity.

As Krasheninnikov noted earlier, the bill will not be retroactive.
