What to do if you are accused of drug use?
If accused of using drugs, the actions of the accused will depend on whether the person actually used drugs or not:
- If a person has used drugs, then there is little point in denying this fact, since tests can be taken for the presence of drugs in his body, and, accordingly, this fact will be established.
Someone will say: “I will refuse to undergo the appropriate medical examination” - yes, the person has the right to refuse the examination, but in this case his actions will be qualified under Art. 6.9. Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, which provides for liability for refusal of medical examination.
Thus, whether a person passes the tests or not, his actions for drug use will in fact be qualified according to the above administrative structure.
In order to avoid violation of the rights of the accused person, it is better to seek help from a lawyer as quickly as possible and agree with him on the position on the case and further actions.
- If the person has not touched drugs, then there is nothing particularly to be afraid of. You must remain calm and undergo drug testing.
However, it should be remembered that the accusation of drug use may not be without reason, so in such a situation you should also use the help of a lawyer who will help prove innocence:
Drug dens
The law has a provision on the basis of which the organizers of dens where drugs are used are held criminally liable. Surely readers have encountered such a problem when there is an apartment at the entrance of a building with suspicious individuals gathering in it every now and then. It seems that there is nothing to report to the police - there is no noise, no hooliganism, but the very appearance of such visitors and, perhaps, the specific smell from the apartment door indirectly indicate that there is a brothel here. In this section we will tell you what can be done in such cases, as well as about Article 232 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, under which drug dealers can be prosecuted.
Literally, the term “den” means a place (premises) where people with criminal intentions gather, within the meaning of Art. 232 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - with the intention to use a narcotic drug. Let us immediately note that according to the criminal legislation of Russia, liability can only arise from those who organized and/or maintain a brothel. That is, the actions of persons who visit the brothel will not constitute a crime, which does not exclude administrative punishment under the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.
Example No. 4 . Rakin R.R. regularly visited the apartment of Myskov N.G., who allowed desomorphine to be brewed (then used) in his apartment. When the police came to check at this address, Rakin, two other dependents and Myskov were in a state of drug intoxication - they were held liable under Art. 6.9 Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, and Myskov N.G. – criminal punishment for maintaining a drug den.
Until 2013, according to Art. 232 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, responsibility came only for the organization and maintenance of a brothel, and only 4 years ago the legislation underwent changes - the scope of responsibility also included the systematic provision of premises for the use of illegal drugs.
Contents of the stash
Content refers to the actions of a person to preserve and use the place he already has (not necessarily owns it) where drug addicts come. This could be payment of rent, utilities, cleaning - in a word, everything related to the actual use of the premises, most often residential.
The basis for holding someone accountable for providing premises (most often their own property) will only be confirmed repeated (more than two times) provision of their housing to addicts for the consumption of prohibited substances.
Organizing a hangout
Organization means finding a premises that is planned to be used for gathering drug addicts; it can be either residential or non-residential. This may also include incurring various expenses, repairs, installation of certain equipment for cooking mixtures (purchase of a stove, dishes, etc.). That is, organizing a den for drug consumption can be understood as fully providing amenities for drug addicts, starting with finding a suitable premises.
For liability purposes, it does not matter whether the actions of the organizer (holder) were selfish or gratuitous. In practice, one of the group of drug addicts allows others into his home for part of the dose, which he does not pay for. If the owner of the brothel supplies those who come to him, then he may have additional liability for the illegal sale of narcotic drugs.
As a general rule, the sanction of Article 232 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation provides for a punishment of up to 4 years of imprisonment , and in the case of guilt of a group of persons or an organized group, the maximum penalty is automatically increased to 6 and 7 years of imprisonment, respectively.
What is the penalty for drug use under the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation?
There is no separate offense for drug use in the criminal law. However, the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation provides for charges for possession, transportation, sale of drugs and others. Thus, a person who uses drugs and is detained by law enforcement officers with the corresponding substance in an amount, starting with a significant amount, will be prosecuted under one or another article of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
If a person has organized a den or provides its premises for drug consumption, this will already result in liability under Art. 232 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the sanctions of which provide for punishment in the form of imprisonment for a term of up to 4, up to 7 years, taking into account the qualification of the actions of persons.
In a situation where a person himself uses prohibited substances and induces others to do so, he faces liability under Art. 230 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. The maximum punishment, taking into account the qualification of actions for inducing drug use, is up to 15 years in prison.

Inducement to use
We have already noted that the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation does not contain provisions on criminal liability for drug use.
At the same time, inducing other people to use is a criminal offense in accordance with Art. 230 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
This provision of the law makes it possible to hold accountable those who introduce healthy people to drug addiction, contributing to the emergence of addiction. According to research, drug addicts are divided into two groups - those who deeply regret that they once tried a prohibited substance (such addicts, despite the fact that they themselves continue to use, discourage people who decide to try it for the first time) and those who actively distribute information about the imaginary safety of drugs, offers and even imposes pills and mixtures on the “newbie”.
Inducement to try a drug may involve the following intentional actions:
- persuasion - when a person is convinced that nothing bad will happen, the powder simply relaxes;
- deception - when a drug is offered under the guise of a legal antidepressant or a regular sedative;
- mental violence - threats are made that if you refuse to use, they will tell something secret about the person, make fun of you in the company, etc.;
- physical violence - threats to cause harm are made (or even demonstrated).
Any of the listed actions, regardless of whether the person succumbed to persuasion, may be punishable by imprisonment for up to 5 years . If the same actions are carried out in relation to a minor (and this most often happens), then the perpetrator may be subject to punishment of up to 15 years in prison, and it does not matter at all whether the persuader was a drug addict. At the same time, if during the inducement the guilty person offered the drugs he had, then his actions may also fall under sale.
Example No. 3 . Andronov E.P. did not use drugs, but all the youth in the area knew him as a “huckster” from whom you could buy spice at any time of the day. In view of the enhanced prevention of the department for minors of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, as well as the vigilance of ordinary citizens, who are increasingly reporting the “bookmarks” they found, clients of Andronov E.P. became less and less. While walking through the park, he noticed two teenagers, in a conversation with whom he began to convince them to try the substance from the bag. When the teenagers agreed, he took two bags of white powder from his pockets and handed them to the children. However, from the house opposite, a neighbor who knew what Andronov was doing managed to call the police, which promptly prevented the teenagers from using spice. Adronov was convicted of inducing minors to drug addiction and attempting to sell them. In total, under two articles of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, he was sentenced to 16 years of imprisonment in a maximum security colony.

BY REFUSING DRUGS, A PERSON CHOOSE LIFE and FREEDOM!
Recently in Astrakhan, offenders have become more active in applying advertising inscriptions on buildings, fences and other structures, promoting the use and sale of various kinds of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances that cause irreparable harm to health. The administration of the Kirov region appeals to owners, service companies, residents and guests of the city of Astrakhan: “do not pass by various types of images of email addresses of websites and telephone numbers of distributors of various types of narcotic substances, new dangerous psychoactive substances (spice, mixes, salts), take measures to prevent them destruction (paint over, erase, or report to the police, administration, anti-drug commission).
REMEMBER, drugs do not help solve problems, drug addiction is a disease that destroys the soul and body! Drug use is one of the ways of contracting HIV infection. The most common causes of death for drug addicts are overdose, AIDS, murder, suicide, hepatitis B and C. Drugs are mostly targeted at the younger generation. If you passed by advertisements for drugs or evidence of their use, it means that you agreed with the distribution of these substances among your children and grandchildren. The provision of advisory, medical and rehabilitation assistance is carried out only by certified bodies.
Please note that illegal advertising of destructive organizations providing assistance to alcohol and drug addicts, people in difficult life situations, etc. is placed on poles, trees, buildings and other structures. It should be noted that qualified assistance is provided only by certified bodies that are required to comply with established standards. Seeking help from bodies that do not have certificates for engaging in this type of activity (for example: the “charitable public organization MBOO (Revival)” advertised on poles and trees), even free of charge, is fraught with the fact that one’s already compromised health may be completely lost, and In this case, there is no one to file claims about poor quality service. You need to know that a self-respecting organization will not advertise on anything, and persons who provide such services unofficially, without registration, and without positive work experience, are often associated with criminal organizations. We ask you to take measures to eliminate such advertising or report such facts to your management organization or the administration of the Kirovsky district by phone.
At the same time, we inform you that advertising on buildings, poles, trees and other structures is permitted with the permission of the owner in places equipped for this.

Underage drug use
Among the latest high-profile drug cases, any case of spice use can be noted. A wave of poisoning from these synthetic substances swept across the country and affected many young people who became victims. But among them there were also those whose degree of guilt was much more serious, since they were accused of drug distribution.
In case of drug use by a minor under the age of 16, the parents of such a person will be held administratively liable under Art. 20.22 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation with the imposition of a fine in the amount of 1,500 rubles to 2,000 rubles.
Preventative work will be carried out with the minor by the juvenile affairs authorities, he will be registered accordingly, i.e. will be under control.
In addition to working with the minor, some work will also be carried out with the parents in order for them to properly fulfill their parental responsibilities.
The established fact of drug use by a minor will leave a certain imprint on the biography of such a person, not to mention the negative effect on health.
You may be arrested for using it
The Code of Administrative Offenses has several articles that provide for liability for illegal (that is, without a doctor’s prescription) use of narcotic drugs:
Article 6.9 Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation
According to this norm, those who have used the drug at home, that is, not in a public place, are involved. Punishment can be either a fine (from 4,000 to 5,000 rubles) or arrest for up to 15 days . Administrative cases of this kind are considered by the court (like all others related to illegal trafficking), and the statute of limitations for the offense is not 2 months, as in ordinary administrative offenses, but 1 year.
Of course, in order to find a person guilty under Art. 6.9 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, you need to have strong evidence that he is in a state of drug intoxication. To do this, at the request of law enforcement agencies, a person raising suspicions of adequacy is sent for a medical examination. The law, practice materials, as well as the regulations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs contain clarifications under what circumstances a referral for examination will be considered justified:
- unsteady gait;
- slurred speech;
- lethargy or, conversely, aggression;
- appearance, behavior or other criteria that give reason to consider a person to be intoxicated (for example, lying on the road, climbing trees, defiantly undressing in a public place, etc. - manifestations of inadequacy may be different).
If the listed signs are present, and the citizen categorically refuses to undergo an examination, such refusal is automatically equated to liability under Art. 6.9 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, as if intoxication had been established.
Example No. 1 . When checking the storage of hunting weapons, the district police officer visited K.O. Korneev’s place of residence to verify the presence of a safe. The door was opened by Korneev K.O., who was in an inadequate state, the pupils of his eyes were dilated, his speech was accompanied by minute pauses and twitching of his limbs. The district police officer suggested that Korneev go to the drug treatment clinic to undergo a medical examination for drug use, but he refused. As a result, Korneev was not only brought to administrative responsibility for using under Art. 6.9 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, but was subsequently deprived of a license to store and carry hunting weapons.
In administrative practice in cases of traffic violations, drivers who refuse to undergo examination are often held liable not only under Part 1 of Art. 12.8 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, but also for use under Art. 6.9 Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation at the same time. In most cases, such drivers do not agree with “double” responsibility, believing that they were unfairly punished for the same offense, and appeal the judge’s decisions. At the same time, the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, in its clarifications, as well as the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, which considers complaints regarding the compliance of these norms with the Constitution of the Russian Federation, came to the conclusion that it is legal to bring to justice simultaneously under two norms, considering the actions of the perpetrator falling under each article, independent and separate from each other.
According to Part 2 of Art. 6.9. The Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation is held responsible for the same actions by citizens of another state or stateless persons: for them, the punishment is supplemented by mandatory administrative deportation from the Russian Federation.
The note to the article contains special rules for the release from liability of those who are recognized as drug addicts and wish to receive treatment:
- if a citizen independently seeks medical help in connection with dependence on narcotic or psychotropic substances, thereby, in essence, admitting himself guilty of use;
- if a citizen is already recognized as a drug addict, he can be referred for treatment by law enforcement agencies (an appropriate resolution is issued).
In both cases from administrative liability under Art. 6.9 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, a person is released.
Part 2 of Article 20.20 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation
A citizen who uses prohibited substances in a public place - on the street, in a park, in a cafe, club, cinema, etc. can become guilty under this provision. Despite the fact that this type of offense is more socially dangerous than actions under Art. 6.9 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, the punishment for it is the same: a fine from 4000 to 5000 rubles, arrest for up to 15 days . In relation to foreign citizens in part 3 of Art. 20.20 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation additionally provides for expulsion.
The police officer must have sufficient facts confirming the person’s use of a drug or psychotropic substance in a public place. In addition, if there is evidence of this, and the citizen refuses to undergo examination, he will be held accountable according to the same standard as if he had used a prohibited substance in a public place.
Example No. 2 . Egorov K.Yu. I was at the city stadium, at the match of my favorite football team. Stepping aside, Egorov decided to take a tablet of a psychotropic substance, but was noticed by one of the PPSP employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, performing security functions. Since the stadium is a public place, and the fact that Yegorov was using a narcotic substance was noticed, he was asked to go for an examination to identify his state of intoxication. Egorov refused, for which he was held accountable under Part 2 of Art. 20.20 Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, he was sentenced to 10 days of arrest.
Article 20.22 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation
Parents or legal representatives of children who have used drugs are responsible for this. In essence, in this way the legislator punishes irresponsible parents for improper upbringing of minors. It often happens that these parents themselves suffer from addiction and lead a corresponding, far from exemplary, lifestyle.
If a child is found to be under the influence of drugs, mom and dad may be subject to a fine of 1,500 to 2,000 rubles . In addition, if repeated facts of improper upbringing of a child are established, parents may be deprived of parental rights at the request of the guardianship and trusteeship authority.
Article 20.21 Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation
According to this standard, a fine of 500 rubles to 1,500 rubles can be imposed , as well as arrest for up to 15 days for appearing in a public place (park, square, public transport) while intoxicated. The law does not specify what kind of intoxication - alcohol or drugs. According to the explanations of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, there will be liability in both cases - judicial practice follows the same path. Moreover, in the event of a refusal to undergo a medical examination, it is impossible to establish whether the person was drinking or using drugs, but his inadequate condition and inhibited behavior give rise to prosecution and subsequent punishment for appearing in such a manner in society.
Along with narcotic and psychotropic substances, the difference between which is in the effect on the body, in the negative consequences and method of production, all the above norms of administrative legislation indicate the so-called new psychoactive substances. There is no official list of these substances, but they are also prohibited. We are talking about so-called soft drugs that can be used like regular chewing gum. Many schoolchildren are familiar with nasvay - an extremely dangerous and harmful substance for the children's brain, but at the same time practically accessible to the public. Nasvay is not included in the lists of prohibited substances approved by the Government of the Russian Federation, however, this substance has a very active effect on the central nervous system of the child and is persistently addictive. The use of nasvay is prohibited by law and entails liability according to the above norms of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. To prevent addiction to this substance, school and city administrations carry out preventive measures, but parents, in turn, are obliged to be extremely attentive to their offspring.
Help from a lawyer when using drugs in Yekaterinburg

Unfortunately, there are also cases when people were deliberately “set up” by purposefully planting drugs on them in order to slander them later.
