Nice links. Thanks.
Will be interesting to see of card forgers are treated differently.
Now that you mention it, I suppose with the pandemic hysteria and more frequent political persecution happening in this country it wouldn't be very surprising to see forgers sentenced more harshly than violent criminals.
I think this is likely.
