"Russian Security Services' Brutal Treatment of Terror Suspects Sparks International Outcry"

TL;DR Summary
Russian authorities shared graphic footage of the violent interrogation of four Tajikistani citizens suspected of carrying out a terrorist attack in Moscow, justifying it as a prevention measure and a response to public demand for "blood and revenge." The footage, including scenes of torture such as ear-cutting and electrocution, was reportedly sanctioned by security officials and widely spread on social media. While some officials support the approach, others fear it could lead to a return of the death penalty and widespread abuse of power, with conflicting reports on whether the federal authorities approved the public sharing of the videos.
