Planted every two days: in the Russian Federation set a record for the number of convicts for the state council

To spread: in 2024, 145 Russian citizens were sentenced to the State Defense Council (275 of the Criminal Code). This is four times more than the same figure in the 2023th and generally the highest indicator in the whole modern history of Russia. About it reports the online edition "Important stories". Investigators report that they have collected data from open sources based on the data of the Court of the Russian Federation.

Russian courts also issued a sentence for espionage (276 of the Criminal Code) 23 Russians-this figure is 2. 5 times higher than in 2023. If we summed up the convicts under these two articles, the Russian authorities planted one "traitor of the Motherland" last year every two days. The number of sentences on the article on confidential cooperation with a foreign state (275. 1 of the Criminal Code) increased 10 times - 21 Russians were condemned for this by 275. 1 of the Criminal Code.

The article itself was introduced into the Criminal Code after the start of the war in Ukraine. In addition, the number of convicts on articles associated with the State Finish increased (283, 283. 1 and 283. 2 of the Criminal Code). Last year, 209 people were sentenced to this one third more than a year earlier. The number of convicts for the State Council beat the record in seven years. There has never been such a high rate since the USSR.
