The incident took place during mass illegal arrests at the peaceful protest on Saturday, July 27.

The suspect’s name is Yury Yuryevich Mishin (badge №007933). He has already deleted his account in the VK social network.

We remind that in accordance with article 1 of the Federal Law “On Police” (7.02.2011 №3-ФЗ) special police measures, including the use of physical force, must always be used on the basis of clear legal regulation and in strict accordance with the law. Mishin’s actions constitute a clear instance of unlawful use of force, which is grounds for criminal prosecution under article 286 of the Russian Criminal Code.
