Resident of Michurinsky district fined for false denunciation of theft

The prosecutor’s office of Michurinsky district supported the state prosecution in a criminal case against a 31-year-old local resident who reported a non-existent hijacking to the police.

As the court found, in April, the man filed a complaint about the theft of a car. However, the inspection showed that there was no crime, and the opening of a criminal case was refused. It turned out that the statement was an attempt to avoid administrative responsibility for the transfer of the car to a person in a state of alcoholic intoxication.

The court found the man guilty of knowingly false denunciation of the crime and imposed a fine of 10 thousand rubles. In addition, the prosecutor’s claim to recover from the convicted costs for knowingly falsely calling the police was satisfied.
