This is the shocking moment a Russian policeman is captured violently beating a man after he allegedly refused to give proof of identity at the airport.
The footage, captured on August 19 in Moscow Domodedovo Airport, shows a policeman repeatedly punching the man after giving him a knee strike in front of his son and wife.
The son can be seen throwing a bag at the police officer in an attempt to help his father. Meanwhile, the man’s wife sits on a chair pinned down by another officer.
The filmer later wrote online: ''I saw two adults and a child waiting for their flight when two policemen came across and asked them for the proof of identity.
''The man seemed a bit tipsy and he stood up and lost his balance. He wasn’t disrespectful.
''Instead of taking care, one of the cops started to beat him and another one grabbed a woman
''Policemen kept on hitting a man while the kid was trying to help his dad to escape.''
Moscow police have not yet commented on the incident.
