THE DISTRICT COURT CONSIDERED THE CRIMINAL CASE

On August 31, 2023, in a field court session, with the involvement of individuals prone to committing offenses and crimes, a criminal case was heard on the accusation of an employee of one of the district enterprises of embezzlement of property by appropriation.

It was established in the case that the accused, working as a tractor driver-machinist at the enterprise, systematically, during the period from 01.09.2022 to 09.06.2023, using the actual fuel economy, on the tractor assigned to him, illegally appropriated, turning to his benefit, the diesel fuel entrusted to him for production tasks, by illegally extracting it from the fuel tank in a total amount of 237 liters for a total amount of 500.07 rubles.

In the court session, the accused fully admitted his guilt, explaining that during field work, as well as during the removal of organic matter, he saved part of the fuel, which he poured into canisters located in the bushes on the roadside. The fuel taken at the end of the work was stored in his garage until it was seized by police officers. He repented of his actions and fully compensated for the damage caused by the crime.

The court, taking into account the sincere repentance for the deed, which is a mitigating circumstance, the absence of aggravating circumstances, voluntary compensation for damages, and positive characteristics at the place of residence and work, sentenced the accused to 1 year of imprisonment without the right to hold certain positions or engage in certain activities, without a fine. Based on parts 1, 2, 4 of Article 78 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Belarus, it was decided not to execute the sentence, if within one year the convicted person does not commit a new crime and fulfills the duties assigned to him. In accordance with part 5 of Article 78 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Belarus, the accused was obliged to pay a criminal law compensation to the state revenue in the amount of 30 basic units, which amounts to 1110 rubles, within six months after the sentence enters into legal force.

The court's sentence, not having been appealed or protested, has entered into legal force.
