In the State Duma, deputies from the Liberal Democratic Party proposed to reduce the time for recognition as missing and thereby speed up the payment of money to the families and friends of the dead soldiers and officers. About it writes “Parliamentary newspaper”.
The explanatory note says that this development is related to the conduct of a special operation. To date, a serviceman or other citizen who has gone missing in connection with hostilities may be declared dead no earlier than two years after the end of hostilities.
Now it is proposed to supplement Article 42 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation with a new provision. According to it, a citizen serving in the troops of the National Guard and in the Russian Armed Forces can be recognized by the court as missing six months after his disappearance.
It is noted that in paragraph 2 of Article 45 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation it is proposed to establish that a citizen who has gone missing in connection with hostilities “may be declared dead by a court after two years have elapsed from the date the citizen was declared missing”. According to the authors of the amendments, the deadlines for recognizing the missing will be set regardless of the end of the SVO.
The head of the Duma Committee on Labor, Social Policy and Veterans Affairs, deputy head of the LDPR faction, Yaroslav Nilov, said that such amendments would shorten the current deadlines “so that the families of those who are in the SVO zone can quickly receive the due payments from the state.”
In Volgograd, the court declared illegal the mark “prone to treachery” on a military ID. Read more in the BLiTZ article.
