At the Domodedovo airport, police beat a man in the presence of his wife and child. VIDEO

The man was at the airport with his wife and child. According to media reports, the police approached the family, because the woman drank alcohol in a public place. After refusing to remove alcohol, her husband allegedly stood up for her.

According to the author of the video, the man behaved decently, but his passport was “in rude form”. However, according to some eyewitnesses, the spouse entered into a verbal squabble with the police and began to insult them. When a man did not want to show documents, they began beating him in the presence of his wife and child.

Eyewitnesses said that the beaten man did not resist. According to NTV, he, on the contrary, entered into a conflict during the arrest. The video shows how the child tried to protect his father and hit the policemen with a backpack.

In the video there is obscene language.

Investigators began checking police officers for possible abuse of power. The Office will give a legal assessment of "the actions of citizens for possible insult to police officers and the use of violence against them."
