Russians use the letter Z to designate their military equipment/APU you have to pay a lot. So, in Germany, those persons who do not disdain to praise the symbol of the aggressor country's mercenaries will be fined.
As they say in the publication, the police of Lower Saxony have already warned local residents about this. Like, if this sign is in public use, then the violator will face a fine or even the introduction of a criminal case.
Public use of the letter “Z” will be punished by law
So, the use of this letter, which has already become a symbol of Russian mercenaries, will be equated with a violation of public order.
Anyone who, using the Z sign, publicly expresses approval of Russian President Putin's aggressive war against Ukraine should expect criminal prosecution in Lower Saxony, said Lower Saxon Minister of the Interior Boris Pistorius.
And here is a demonstration of this sign in the time of rallies in the region can be considered a violation of public order. Moreover, criminal liability is provided for this.
The corresponding initiative was also supported in Bavaria. Justice Minister Georg Eisenreich stressed that crimes that openly violate international law should not be condoned.
At the same time, he noted that “freedom of opinion ends where criminal law begins” . By this, he made it clear that it would not be possible to escape punishment by referring to the freedom of speech in the country. Therefore, anyone who uses this sign in public will certainly be held accountable.
Recall that in Russia the letters Z and V are used to denote military equipment. Moreover, the country is already actively rebranding, where the usual letters “Z” are replaced by “Z”.
