The article presents an analysis of current issues of qualification of criminally punishable hooliganism, liability for the commission of which is provided for by Article 213 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, taking into account the provisions of the Plenum of the Supreme Court updated on November 26, 2024, set out in the resolution of November 15, 2007 No. 45 “On judicial practice in criminal cases of hooliganism and other crimes committed out of hooligan motives”. The authors focus on issues related to the mandatory features of the objective side of the main composition of hooliganism, the qualification of hooliganism committed with the use of violence against citizens or the threat of its use, as well as committed with the use of weapons or objects used as weapons. The issue of decriminalization of paragraph “b” of Part 1 of Article 213 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation is proposed for consideration due to the impossibility of finding two different motives in the composition of hooliganism.

hooliganism, art. 213 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, use of violence, extremist motive, use of weapons
