“On April 13 at 63 km of the road “Nizhnyaya Elyuzan – Russky Kameshkir – Lopatino – the Penza region border” a KamAZ truck was stopped. As a result of the inspection, it was established that the driver did not have necessary documents for the hay transportation. In order to illegally escape administrative responsibility the Saratov region resident, who was escorting the cargo and sitting behind the wheel of the truck, being aware of the illegality of his actions, got into the patrol car of the traffic police and put money in the amount of 1 thousand rubles in the glove box,” the senior assistant of the head of the regional prosecutor for media relations Svetlana Artamonova told the news agency PenzaNews.

She said that the court imposed a fine of 30 times the amount of the bribe.
