The accused has a daughter in respect of whom he is deprived of parental rights. She's on government support. According to the court order, the man, starting from September 2019, is obliged to pay monthly funds for the maintenance of the child.
He was employed as a loader in a store, but the Minsk citizen regularly allowed absenteeism for disrespectful reasons, which entailed incomplete fulfillment of monthly obligations to reimburse the state for the maintenance of his daughter.
Employees of the enforcement department repeatedly tried to reason with the citizen, warned about responsibility, but he did not attach any importance to their words. As a result, another criminal case was opened against him.
Guilt in the court hearing, the Minsk citizen fully admitted, repented of what he had done.
- The accused is officially employed, in August 2023 he was already brought to criminal responsibility for committing a similar crime, said Alexei Minets, assistant prosecutor of the Zavodsky district. - The court found him guilty of committing a crime under Part 3 of Art. 174 of the Criminal Code ("Deviation of parents from maintaining children or from reimbursement of expenses spent by the state for maintaining children who are or were on state support"), and imposed a punishment of two months of arrest. In addition, he must undergo compulsory treatment for chronic alcoholism.
