Illegal Alcohol Sales Lead to Fines and Store Closures in Vladivostok
In a recent crackdown on illegal alcohol sales, the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Primorsky Krai reported two stores in Vladivostok for violating regulations under Article 14.2 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.
The first store, located on Anna Shchetinina Street, was found selling alcohol without a license and in violation of licensing conditions. As a result, the store's owner, a 46-year-old woman, has been held administratively liable under Part 2 of Article 14.17.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. During the raid, police seized 83 liters of alcoholic beverages from the store.
An administrative offense report was filed against the store's seller, a 44-year-old woman, and there is a possibility of confiscation of the items involved in the offense. However, the specific alcoholic products seized were not specified.
The exact amount of the fines to be imposed on the store's management was not disclosed, but fines for these offenses for legal entities can range from 30,000 to 300,000 rubles.
The second store, also on Anna Shchetinina Street, was also found selling alcohol illegally. Residents in the area had reported public disturbances caused by individuals buying alcohol from the store and causing disturbances after consumption.
Another store on Nadibaeva Street in Vladivostok was also caught selling alcohol illegally. The case regarding the store on Nadibaeva Street has been transferred to a magistrate's court.
Fines for individuals committing these offenses range from 1,500 to 10,000 rubles. Offenses related to illegal retail sale of alcoholic and alcohol-containing food products by individuals are punishable under Article 14.2 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.
