Invalid on the head? Ukraine is shocked by the video of inadequate cops attacking a veteran.

Scandal over the harsh detention of a veteran with a disability

In the city of Samara in Dnipropetrovsk region, there was a situation where law enforcement officers harshly detained a veteran with a disability with the call sign Yamaha during a document check on his car.

The published video of the incident on the unofficial Telegram channel of the 25th Separate Airborne Assault Brigade of Sicheslav gained popularity on social media.

The recording shows how the police refuse to show their official IDs at the veteran's request, leading to an escalation of the situation.

However, the moment when one of the law enforcement officers arrogantly asked the veteran what his disability was, to which he replied "on the head," gained particular resonance. For these words, the police threw the veteran on the asphalt and put handcuffs on him, ignoring his warning about having a plate in his arm.

According to the detained individual, the conflict arose from his demand to see the police officers' service documents, while the law enforcement officers considered his actions to be hooliganism. The leadership of the Dnipropetrovsk police started an internal investigation regarding the legality of their employees' actions.

The regional police department reported that an internal investigation has begun to establish the legality of the police actions that were present at the scene.
