A court in Sochi sentenced three former police officers to three and a half years in a general regime colony for abuse of power. As reported by the United Press Service of the Courts of the Krasnodar Territory, a patrol officer discovered a citizen of Tajikistan at a car wash, who works outside the scope of the patent. The man was taken to the department, but after a conversation with a known government official, the command ordered that no administrative protocol be drawn up. In addition to the term, each of them is prohibited from holding positions in the civil service for two years. The defendants pleaded not guilty. The case of the official who asked not to bring the foreigner to justice was split into separate proceedings.
