Justice will come true

The parliamentarians noted the urgent need to update the criminal legislation in connection with the aggravation of the situation around social networks, where the so-called "death groups" continue to operate, the victims of which over the past few years were teenagers from Russia, Ukraine, Moldova, and our republic.
