A bill will be introduced to the State Duma that would allow the abuse of self-defense in one’s home
On Monday, June 17, a bill will be submitted to the State Duma, according to which Russians will be allowed to exceed the necessary self-defense in the event of home invasion. This was reported by TASS with reference to the text of the initiative.
It is noted that the norm will apply exclusively within one’s own home. It is proposed to make corresponding amendments to the Criminal Code (CC).
The explanatory note states that housing means both the permanent place of residence of a citizen and temporary one. It is emphasized that penetration into a living space can be carried out for different purposes, and due to the need to assess the situation and possible risks, the attacker is in a more advantageous position.
Previously, the government introduced a bill to the State Duma that would allow military personnel and volunteers to use a driver’s license, even if they were previously deprived of this license.
