Caucasians with knuckles and traumatic pistols detained in Moscow
Moscow militiamen have detained about ten natives of the Caucasus and confiscated traumatic weapons and prohibited items from them.
At entrances to Moscow metro, militiamen check documents of persons with non-Slavic appearance. A source from law enforcement bodies said that the measures are aimed to prevent possible unauthorized actions and clashes in the city, the "Interfax" writes.
The detainees were deprived of gas canisters, traumatic pistols, screwdrivers and brass knuckles.
