Mainkan Race to Kyiv

WARNING:

OWNERSHIP OF A COPY OF RACE TO KYIV IN RUSSIAN FEDERATION IS FORBIDDEN AND MAY LEAD TO IMPRISONMENT

Article 207.3 of the Criminal Code penalizes “public dissemination of deliberate false information about the use of Russian Armed Forces,” with penalties ranging from large fines to imprisonment of up to three years.
Those who allegedly disseminate such false information using their “official position” or as part of an organized group or accompanied by “artificial creation of evidence for prosecution;” or “guided by greed, or motivated by political, ideological, race, ethnic or religious hatred or hatred against a social group” could face five to ten years in prison.
In the event of “grave consequences” the penalty is imprisonment from 10 to 15 years with a ban on carrying out a profession or certain activities for up to 5 years.
Russian criminal law does not contain an exhaustive list of what constitutes “grave consequences” and depending on the specific crime, law enforcement and courts have interpreted it to include significant financial loss and bodily harm or death.
What might constitute a grave consequence of disseminating alleged false information, is therefore essentially at the discretion of the prosecution.
