- The Supreme Court of the Russian Federation recognized participation in the war against Ukraine as the basis for exemption from criminal punishment. As the court noted, the convict performs combat missions, therefore, he no longer poses a danger to society.

The Judicial Collegium for Military Personnel Affairs of the Supreme Court released Corporal Vladislav Ustinov from punishment, who was previously found guilty of a fatal accident. Reason — he is participating in the war in Ukraine, Kommersant writes.

In May last year, the Khabarovsk garrison court found Ustinov guilty of an accident in which two people died. He was sentenced to two years in a colony-settlement. However, the decision of the Supreme Court states that more than a year and a half has passed since the crime was committed, and Ustinov himself is now "performing combat missions in the zone of the NMD." The court ruled that he was no longer a danger to society and that he should be released from punishment.

The court decision also states that Ustinov committed the first crime of medium gravity, fully admitted his guilt and repented. In addition, the court notes that the command characterizes Ustinov as a serviceman who shows "courage, bravery and a high level of professional training."

«Kommersant» writes that this decision was made by the Supreme Court after severaldays after the law came into force, allowing the release of participants in the war from criminal liability for minor crimes. The document notes that those convicted of crimes of small and medium gravity can be released from punishment if they are mobilized or they agree to conclude a contract for military service. Ustinov at that time already served under the contract.

His lawyer Sergei Bizyukin believes that now the courts will be able to use the participation of defendants in criminal cases in the war as a mitigating circumstance, or, in his opinion, this may become the basis for reviewing the verdict.
