Video: Russian Police Demonstrate Their Beat-First-Question-Later Approach

While other departments are trying to teach non-violent methods, Russia appears to favor a more physical approach, as shown in this video.

This video, however, shows what many have complained is an all-too-familiar approach by Russian officers responding to a call. In this case, the police not only beat on suspect but hit a third party who dares to approach the scene of unrestrained abuse.
