Russia to create ‘Rapist-Pedophile’ database
Russia plans to build a unified electronic database of people who have committed sexual violence against minors, Anastasia Udaltsova, a deputy in the State Duma, the lower house of Russia’s parliament, told Ksenia Sobchak’s Telegram channel Krovavaya Barynya (“Bloody Lady”).
According to a deputy in Russia's State Duma, Anastasia Udaltsova, the government plans to create a unified electronic database of individuals who have committed sexual violence against minors. The Interior Ministry is reportedly conducting preliminary research and development work on the registry, with plans to launch it in 2027.
Udaltsova has expressed opposition to the registry being closed and accessible only to Interior Ministry employees, arguing that it should be made public. The registry will reportedly be called "Rapist-Pedophile," though this specific name is not mentioned in the Interior Ministry's letter. The idea of creating such a database has been discussed in Russia for at least a decade, with previous proposals made by other officials, including Sergei Mironov in 2025.
