3. Deprivation of the right to hold certain positions or to engage in a certain types of activity as an additional type of punishment may be also appointed in the case in which it is not stipulated by the relevant article of the Special Part of the present Code as punishment for the relevant crime, if, subject to the character and degree of public danger of a committed crime, and personality of the convict, a court recognises it as impossible for him to retain the right to hold certain positions, or to engage in certain types of activity.
