russian Prisoners are deprived of payments.

The government has " changed " the procedure for lump sum payments for citizens who signed a contract with the Ministry of Defense to be sent to war in Ukraine.

Now such payments are not due to persons who signed a contract while in prison or a colony.

Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin signed the corresponding resolution on December 28. The document was published on the legal acts portal on December 30 and will enter into force on January 1, 2025.

The opportunity to be released from criminal prosecution with the help of a military contract became available to convicted persons in 2023. In March 2024, the State Duma adopted a law that allows suspects, accused and convicted persons for minor and moderate crimes to be released from liability.
