The assistant to a deputy who beat his wife was detained in Cheboksary

The video published by the channel “Cheboksary Auto News from ZR” shows how Markel Egorov, an assistant to Chuvashia State Council deputy from the LDPR, Konstantin Stepanov, forcibly drags a woman along the ground by her hair and pushes her into a car.

A few hours after the video was published, Egorov was detained. He attributed his behavior to “family conflict.” The injured woman also came to the police station on her own.

At the same time nothing will happen to him, as Putin de-criminalized violence in the family per decree in 2017, so it is now only a pure administrative offense, which at the most will be settled with a fine.
