Topic of the day: In Russia, it is proposed to exclude blood revenge from aggravating circumstances. This initiative was taken by a professor from the University of Dagestan, Dori Ziyadova, in an online seminar at the University of Moscow. She called "blood revenge" a way to restore justice and a tool to protect honor and dignity. kavkaz_leakbez. The Caucasus is drowning because of the abolition of the penalty for murders due to blood revenge. True, so far only to mitigate the punishment: they say, revenge is sacred, and some personal interest (because of which, for example, they were killed) is haram. Marina Ahmadova. But an important feature of the custom is the possibility of reconciliation, which solves several problems at once that are unattainable in traditional law: true remorse of the attacker, compensation for damage, remorse for the victim and her relatives. That is, the lawyer directly states that a special medieval justice should apply to the republics of the North Caucasus. Apparently, they live there so much inside the cocoon of their traditions that they don't even realize how wild and anti-state it sounds. For example, it is completely unclear to me why any citizen can come to kill a person and count on leniency in court. But a murderer, let's say, from Rostov cannot count on leniency, because he is Russian, and has no tradition of blood revenge. bad luck. Professor Dagestan, a doctor of law, considers murder resulting from blood revenge as a useful and correct thing, the punishment for which should be lighter than, for example, murder motivated by mercenaries. And it directly states that in some regions local customs play a huge role, and not the laws of the Russian Federation, that these regions are part and willing consumers of subsidies. And it would be nice to legalize these customs on an all-Russian scale - you never know where a proud mountaineer will be tempted to slaughter a bloodline. Now try to guess what Dagestani criminal law professor Dori Ziyadova is teaching Dagestani law students who will go to work in the police and prosecutor's office tomorrow.
