It is an interesting strategy that IS deployed, to delay the release of their videos.
This article then goes on to describe other videos (released from the Russian side, I presume?) that are horribly abhorrent:
Given his supposed opposition to Nazism, Putin only had to look for select members of his own population, within his own borders, to find and route out Nazis:

EDIT - an afterthought: And President Drink Bleach and his MAGAs support Putin.
Nazism is only bad when it's a small group in Ukraine with essentially no power. And, of course, Nazis in a country run by a Jewish president allows him to play the antisemitic side too.
I have serious doubts that there's actual research backing up the idea that this is actually an effective way to get information out of someone.
There's research that indicates it doesn't work at all. They'll just say whatever is needed to make it stop.
"Yes! I'm actually Ukrainian! Zelenskyy and I planned it over lunch!"
An MI-6 agent, a CIA agent, and a KGB agent are all talking, claiming to be the best at finding a target when they need to. So they come up with a competition, where they release a rabbit into a forest and have to track and retrieve it.
The MI-6 agent goes on first, and after a week comes back, accepting failure.
The CIA agent goes next, and after 3 days comes out and declares there is no rabbit, or it escaped into another country.
The Russian agent goes last, and after 6 hours calls the others back to inform that he succeeded.
When the other two agents arrive, they find a bear chained to a chair, badly beaten and bloody, wearing a set of bunny ears and saying "I am a rabbit. I have always been a rabbit. My parents were members of a rabbit group..."
A torture victim would admit to smoking weed with Mohammed, and punching orphans with Hitler.
