A resident of Kuban persuaded an 11-year-old boy to use drugs
The Gulkevichi District Court is considering a criminal case opened by drug enforcement officers against 25-year-old Sergei, a resident of the village of Maikopskoye, who works as a carpenter and is accused of drug possession and inciting a minor to use drugs. As reported to a REGNUM correspondent by the press service of the Federal Drug Control Service (UDC) of the Russian Federation for Krasnodar Krai, the young man, who had an outstanding conviction at the time of the charge (at the age of 17, he was sentenced to seven years for robbery), came to the attention of the police after repeated complaints from his neighbors. They claimed that teenagers regularly gather at the young man's house. They usually come in the evening. They were doing something chemical, as evidenced by the toxic smell of solvent. The youth dispersed, swaying from side to side, sometimes freezing, sometimes squatting in place.

A group of drug addicts was detained at an anti-drug rock festival in Penza
The rock festival that opened last Friday in Penza does not fully meet its stated goals, according to employees of the Federal Drug Control Service for the Penza Region. This was stated to the media on May 31 by Irina Osetrova, a senior detective for especially important cases at the regional Federal Drug Control Service, as reported by a REGNUM correspondent. At the first festival performance, which took place in Penza under the motto "Rock - against drugs" in the city's cultural and leisure center, drug police officers found numerous examples of the exact opposite of this motto.
