Former kickboxer Viacheslav Datsik calls himself Red Tarzan and has declared war on prostitution in the city of St Petersburg. The 36-year-old has reportedly been calling police and tipping them off, effectively orchestrating raids – but this time he personally conducted an attack.
Harrowing footage shows him and several other men including Stanislav Baretsky, a 44-year-old Russian musician and actor, raiding a brothel. They enter a brothel room with a group of men – some have their hoods up and are wearing sunglasses.
atsik can be seen holding a prostitute of African origin to the floor, pushing into her back with his knees. He then appears to give her a beating as the camera pans around and intermittently blacks out.
Another video shows Datsik grabbing the hair and arms of two African prostitutes, so that he can show their faces to the camera. All the while, Baretsky is standing next to them, but does not appear to physically harm them.
Datsik then asks the women why they ‘infect Russian citizens with AIDS’
