Senator Narusova: you should only be allowed to see prisoners if you have an electronic record
electronic record made using the “Gosuslugi” portal. This initiative, as noted by TASS, was made by a member of the Committee on Constitutional Legislation and State Construction Lyudmila Narusova.
“If the Federal Penitentiary Service excludes the electronic queue in its program, postpones it again to 2022, I think that we, as legislators it is necessary to legally oblige the FSIN to do what they promised us to do three years ago, ”said Narusova at a seminar-meeting held on November 9 in the building of the Federation Council, which was devoted to the topic of admission to visits with prisoners.
The senator reminded her colleagues that three years ago the Federal Penitentiary Service curtailed plans to introduce electronic queues. According to Narusova, because of this, Russians are forced to sign up for dates with relatives serving their sentences, wasting time in huge queues.
… In this case, there is a huge scope for corruption, “- said Narusova.
Earlier it was reported that the idea of introducing electronic appointments in jails and colonies through the portal” Gosuslugi “was supported by the Russian Prosecutor General's Office. Department spokesman Anton Davydov said at a meeting in the Federation Council that this measure would avoid hourly queues.
