In Irkutsk, a court found a 19 year old man guilty of evading military conscription. He was fined, and the verdict has already entered into force. The report also recalls a similar case last week and that the spring draft will last until July 15.
Investigators explained that the young man was found guilty of committing a crime under Part 1 of Article 328 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, “Evasion of conscription for military service in the absence of lawful grounds for exemption from this service.”The sentence has entered into legal force.
Let us recall a similar case that occurred last week. Also, a 19-year-old draft evader was fined 30,000 rubles. In the autumn of last year, the conscript was summoned to the military commissariat office, where he was handed a summons to undergo military service. The young man was also warned of criminal liability for failing to appear without a valid reason. But on the day set for him, he did not appear. The young man moved to live in another city.
By a ruling of the Oktyabrsky District Court of Irkutsk, the draft evader was found guilty of committing a crime under Article 328 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (evasion of military service). The young man could have faced up to 2 years in prison.
We remind you that the spring conscription will last until July 15.
