Putin signed a law banning people with a criminal record from working in taxis and public transport

The document is published on the official portal of legal information.

We are talking about an unexpunged or outstanding conviction under articles on murder, intentional infliction of grievous bodily harm, kidnapping, robbery, robbery and crimes on sexual grounds.

Also, people with a criminal record will not be able to drive buses, trams, trolleybuses, or operate metro trains.

Earlier it became known that State Duma deputies adopted amendments in which drivers with a criminal record will be banned from working in taxis and public transport.
