Yes, but the positive I took away was how our brothers didn't seem to cower or be intimidated. They had to physically remove the one brother from blocking the door. That was a real strength to the friends present.

I wonder who is the cameraman. Who and why made this video? He came with the police and made no comments.

The way the video is filmed shows that it has been made with a hidden camera.

Maybe a JW's friend from the neighborhood who acted like a curious neighbor… and sent his video to 'glavny.tv'

I was thinking that maybe he was filming for the FSB?

When I first joined jwtalk, I saw a thread where there is a Russian member that is bilingual. If someone knows who that is perhaps they could send them a link to this thread so they could tell us the gist of what is being said?
