ArmInfo. In connection with the video that has spread on social networks, which shows how Patrol Service officers use force against one of the drivers, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has issued an explanation.
In the video, Patrol Service officers approached one of the cars, began to pull the driver out by force, and then took him away in an unknown direction.
As emphasized in the explanations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, as part of a state protocol event, Patrol Service officers ensured the unimpeded passage of a column of cars. At that moment, one of the drivers, waiting for the column to pass, began to insult law enforcement officers in obscene language. He was taken to the central municipal police station, and after explanations, released.
What remained behind the scenes was who exactly the Patrol Service officers ensured the passage of the column of cars with. There is a suggestion on social media that this is a motorcade carrying German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
