In every third case, the bribes were quite small - their size did not exceed 10 thousand rubles. Petty bribery was most widespread in Bashkortostan, Moscow and the Krasnodar Territory.
For two months of this year, the number of economic crimes increased by 1%. However, in the structure of crime, their share increased more - from 7.8% to 8.3%.
