Response from
According to the law, no, not without a reason, see the Law on Militia Article 11. Rights of the Militia The Militia, in order to perform the duties imposed upon it, shall have the right to: To check identity documents of citizens if there are reasonable grounds to suspect them of committing a crime, to assume that they are wanted, or there is a reason to initiate proceedings for an administrative offence against them; Annex to the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia dated January 18, 1993 № 17 Statute of the Patrol - Post Service of the Militia of the PUBLIC SAFETY OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION 100. In order to carry out their assigned duties, patrol and checkpoint personnel shall have the right to: - check identity documents of citizens and officials, if there are sufficient grounds to suspect them of committing a crime or administrative offence And just like that of course they have no right?

have the right to find a reason, but if there are no documents
they have the right, but if they have no documents they will take them to the police station for identity checks
They very much do
police have the right to do anything, but if you have done nothing, they will let you go.
They will always justify the reason for the check. They are taught to do that. And if there are no documents, they have the right to detain you for three hours to verify your identity.
They can check you if you suspect you committed a crime, but to go somewhere, according to the law, it is voluntary, and they cannot compel you.But if you have no documents, you are a guest worker and you have no registration, so you cannot stay on Russian territory.And judging by the photo, you have no documents because you are an animal, and we do not issue documents to animals!
legally they have the right to check your documents for two reasons, either you coincide with a wanted person, or you pose an external threat to the people around you, such as waving a gun or riding in a tank, which is a threat in any other case, you do not have to provide your own documents to these jerks
That is why they are cops and the authority to check documents was given to them by our state in the form of the Federal Law On Police95.
Believe me, a police officer will not check documents without a reason. If he approached and demanded to show documents, then there were reasons: -Suspicious -Fits the description of the wanted -Wants to get acquainted:-If there are no documents, then do not be lazy and go with him to the department, there is a maximum of 3 hours. Well, if it is a bandit in uniform, then goodbye.Joking PS: The concept of reasonable grounds are always interpreted only in favor of the police
Don't be ridiculous! They have the right to do anything and everything! They can find drugs on anybody if they want to.
If we refer to the legislation of the Russian Federation, we see: The police, in order to perform the duties imposed on it, are entitled: to check the identity documents of citizens and officials if there are reasonable grounds to suspect them of committing a crime or administrative offense I think that everything is clear here Normative documents that oblige to carry, say, a passport I do not know.
mines are just a peep
can if you look suspicious or there is an emergency in the area and the description of wanted persons matches your appearance.
Read the Law on Police, then you'll know exactly what they are entitled to and what they are not, and how to behave in a conflict with the police. And in general they have the right to ask for documents.
should always be afraid of our police. Only in the movies you can find out all the circumstances in an hour. In life everything is different.
