Torture against terror suspects in Russia: Experts also see attempts at intimidation against the population. Russia continues to normalize violence – Putin is sending a clear message.
The footage of the torture appears to be being distributed not randomly, but to warn others planning attacks on Russia that they will face the same consequences. The torture of the four terrorists can probably be seen as retaliation for the terrorist attack on the Moscow concert hall on Friday, which left 137 people dead and another 180 injured. It has long been suspected that terrorist suspects are also tortured in Russia.
