DUSHANBE. Sept 19 (Interfax) - Russian prosecutors ensured the seizure of corrupt officials' assets totaling over 420 million rubles, the legality of which officials were unable to prove, in the first half of 2024, Russian Prosecutor General Igor Krasnov said.
"In the first year of enforcing the respective law [the mechanism of state seizure of assets was legalized in 2012], motions for seizing unsubstantiated income totaling over 90 million rubles were filed with court. The sum exceeded 420 million rubles in the first sixth months of this year," Krasnov said at the 9th meeting of the CIS Interstate Anti-Corruption Council on Thursday.
Russia continues to refine the enforcement of anti-corruption laws, including the right of prosecutors to verify the legality of money on bank accounts of officials and their families, he said.
