Nov 7, 2009, 13:24 GMT

Moscow - A Russian police officer, annoyed with poor working conditions and overtime, skipped formal avenues for complaints and went straight to the top, via the internet, posting his grievances for the attention of Prime Minister Vladimir Putin. Dressed in duty uniform, 32-year-old Major Alexei Dimowksi appears in the video clips, which he put online from the Black Sea city of Novorossiysk, radio broadcaster Echo Moskwy reported Saturday. In the clips, Dimowski appeals to Putin for a 'crisis summit.' Putin has not commented on the clips, but some of Dimowski's colleagues have expressed criticism. Nonetheless, they have become an internet sensation in Russia, with many of Dimowski's fellow citizens saying the officer has a point.
