The lawyer evaluated the Ministry of Justice's plans to raise the thresholds for grand theft.
This is the first time in 23 years that the initiative has been proposed.
It may help to reduce the number of "unjustified imprisonments".
This opinion was expressed on the radio station "Moscow Speaks" by the chairman of the Moscow Bar Association "Pavel Zaitsev and his partners", member of the presidency of the "National Anti-Corruption Commission" Pavel Zaitsev.
Inflation crept in and prices rose. The million that was 23 years ago is now different money. The criminal code will not be accompanied by inflation. The time has come. People who commit theft on a particularly large scale will still be held liable, but not for a particularly large amount, but for a large amount. The rights of the victims will not be harmed, because the damage will be compensated. But maybe there won't be too many unjustified imprisonments of people. This is not humanization, but it brings the criminal law to reality, to prices. Everything depends on the law, in what form it will be adopted.
