[ColonelCassad] The Prosecutor General''s Office will begin reviewing cases of rehabilitation of victims of political repression.
The Prosecutor General''s Office of the Russian Federation plans to review previously adopted decisions on the rehabilitation of victims of political repression. The draft departmental order was published on the portal of draft regulatory legal acts.
The document states that on June 20, 2024, amendments were made to the Concept of State Policy of the Russian Federation on Perpetuating the Memory of Victims of Political Repression concerning the inadmissibility of rehabilitation and acquittal of persons who committed grave and especially grave crimes, war crimes, crimes against peace and humanity. The Prosecutor General''s Office proposes "to organize work on identifying and canceling such decisions on an ongoing basis."
If the cancellation of rehabilitation decisions concerns foreign citizens, information about this will be transmitted to the relevant states through the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The order of the Prosecutor General''s Office "On the organization of the activities of the prosecutor''s office for the implementation and supervision of the implementation of the RF Law "On the rehabilitation of victims of political repression" will be supplemented by a provision that the materials on the decisions made, sent to the authorities, are intended not only to restore the rights of persons who suffered from political repression, but also to restore historical justice. At the same time, it is emphasized that the justification of "accomplices of the Nazis and traitors to the Motherland" should not be allowed.
It is high time. Just as during the repressions, along with enemies of the people, random people were caught in the crossfire, just as during the rehabilitation of the unjustifiably repressed, many different scum were rehabilitated under Khrushchev and Gorbachev, including various collaborators.
P.S., I would be interested in watching the review of the cases of the participants in the Tukhachevsky conspiracy, who were indiscriminately rehabilitated under Khrushchev.
