[DARPA]

Relatives of convicted corrupt officials will report on the sources of acquisition of the property

A new round of fighting corruption. The State Duma proposes to oblige relatives convicted of any corruption crime report on the sources of acquisition of the property. If we prove that it has been obtained by legal means fail, it confiscated.

As told RBC offers prepared in committee on security and anti-corruption. In turn, the Investigative Committee of the idea of ​​not only supports and stands for even greater expansion of the scope of the forfeiture. It is not only the seizure of proceeds from crime property, but personal property corrupt, except for the list of the most necessary for life and a life of things. Lawyers fear that such a measure could lead to additional pressure on the business. Parties often use methods of criminal coercion in matters of property redistribution, and the confiscation of the property may be a new weapon in the fight. I note that now the property acquired by criminal means, corrupt transfers to third parties, and it is impossible to remove.
