MOSCOW, Dec 11 (PRIME) -- The Russian communications service has imposed a 500,000 ruble fine on Google for its reluctance to delete from search results the links to resources with illegal information, the watchdog’s Director Alexander Zharov told reporters on Tuesday.
“We fined Google today 500,000 rubles,” Zharov said.
The service drew a protocol on an administrative offense and opened a case against Google on November 26.
The law obliging search engines to get connected to a single register of banned information and screen search results from the blacklisted websites came in force on October 1. Violations are fined 500,000–700,000 rubles.
