Gruesome abduction in Krasnodar raises questions on police response

Scenes reminiscent of brutal action games took place in Krasnodar, Russia. A group of men assaulted a defenceless woman on the street and then pushed her into a car. Videos and photos of the incident appeared online. The victim did not want to report the matter, claiming that her husband had beaten her.

Many of the reports shared by Russian media and government representatives are likely not true. Such information might be part of Russia's information warfare.

A video of the extremely brutal incident on one of Russia's streets appeared online. It reportedly occurred last week in Krasnodar. A group of men beat a woman and then threw her into a car.

The victim struggled against her attackers and at one point managed to escape the vehicle. However, the woman did not enjoy her freedom for long. The attackers quickly caught her, beat her a second time, and forced her back into the car. Eventually, the victim sat in the back seat with a shattered face.

The shocking aspect is not just the incident itself but also its further circumstances. The entire event was recorded by a woman who witnessed the brutal act. The Russian woman reacted and raised the alarm. The victim, however, refused help. She stated that "her husband and his friends beat her." It is unknown whether she was telling the truth or feared her assailants.

According to the woman who witnessed the incident, "the victim said that out of fear of her attackers." Ultimately, it is unknown how the situation ended. Russian law enforcement was supposed to be informed about the case. However, police officers from Krasnodar did not respond to the report.
