Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law toughening administrative responsibility for unauthorized entry into state facilities. Now, a violation is punishable by a fine in the amount of 5,000 rubles to 10,000 rubles, compulsory work for a period of 40 to 60 hours, or administrative arrest for a period of up to 10 days.
Previously, administrative liability for penetration into such facilities was not provided.
We are talking about the protected objects of the Russian Guard, the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the Foreign Intelligence Service, the FSB, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, institutions of the penitentiary system of the Russian Federation, or objects assigned to the authority of the authority in the field of mobilization training and mobilization.
For unauthorized entry into a guarded facility of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, an facility protected by state security agencies, a facility of the fuel and energy complex, which has been assigned a hazard category, or an important state facility, a structure on communications, special cargo, the protection of which is carried out by the National Guard, if this action does not contain signs of a criminally punishable act, the fine will be from 75 thousand rubles to 200 thousand rubles.
Compulsory work for a period of 60 to 120 hours or administrative arrest for a period of up to 15 days may also be assigned for such an offense. Previously, fines and administrative arrest were provided only for unauthorized entry into a protected underground or underwater facility.
For penetration into all other protected objects, the amount of fines remains the same – from 3 thousand rubles to 5 thousand rubles. At the same time, the possibility of confiscation of the instrument of committing the offense remains, and as alternative types of punishment, compulsory labor for up to 40 hours with possible confiscation of the instrument of the offense or administrative arrest for up to five days with possible confiscation are introduced.
