Highly distressing images from Russia.
Peter Tatchell was among a group of activists detained by police in central Moscow during the demonstration by dozens of homosexual rights activists campaigning for an end to sexual discrimination.
Mr Tatchell earlier had been punched in the face in full view of police and dozens of journalists. Another activist was seen bleeding from his face after being attacked.
Punches and kicks flew and eggs and insults were hurled when the activists defied a state ban and briefly staged the city’s second ever Gay Pride march.
The footage of gay people being assaulted and then being ARRESTED by the Russian police is beyond belief.
My heart weeps for the world.
