All you need to know about the professionalism of Russian security
services: Russian military correspondents proudly share a video where
a uniformed security officer cuts off the ear of a suspect in the
Moscow attack and forces him to eat it.

I've seen news sources I normally consider decent to describe how the suspect's ear was cut off as an act of "revenge". To me, this both presumes guilt and implicitly suggests handing out punishment is part of a cop's role. Putin's populism really has a way of seeping through.
