Things that are not in the books.
Please correct my translation for these few phrases and what would be the best way to say these phrases? Also should the formal or informal be used these situations?:
Put your hands on your head!
Поместите руки на голову.
Do you have any weapons or narcotics on you?
Y вac собой есть оружие или наркотики?
Have you ever been arrested before?
Раньше, вы были арестованы?
Thanks!
Don't worry I am just writing another story!

Put your hands on your head!
Руки за голову!!! (*зверским голосом * :) )
Have you ever been arrested before?
Привлекались раньше к уголовной отвественности?
(не знаю, меня не арестовывали, но вроде так спрашивают...)

Put your hands on your head!
Поместите руки на голову. (это дословно)
Обычно говорят: "Руки на капот!" или "на крышу" (машины)
Do you have any weapons or narcotics on you?
У вac при себе есть оружие или наркотики?
Have you ever been arrested before?
Арестовывались ли вы раньше?
Also these forms of address are very polite. :) That's hardly in the character. Russian police doesn't make a big fuss over formalities. They may just shout "Лежать!" then search you up pointing their AK's at you. Also they don't ask whether do you have weapons or narcotics - they offer "Откройте багажник" or "Выложите сюда содержимое своих карманов (сумки)".

Ramil, imho you are unfair to russian police. AFAIK, the US cops usually shout "freez!!!" and shoot, or they even shoot and then shout "freez" instead of "could you stay here for a while, please". The last thing a russian police officer can do is shooting. Every shot is a great rape session for a russian police officer with a lot of reports, finding and showing the shot shells and investigation about an accident, did he realy have rights to shoot when a thug started to cut his throat? Trust me, i know what i'm talking about...

Actually for my purposes it would be better to use phrases that are a little polite. Similar to US police.
(US cops usually are more polite than you would think)

DDT, I had a lot of contacts with cops several years ago, they work with such scumms!!! The 90% of their "customers" are completly a$$holes, the drug addicted thugs... they dont know what the word "polite" means. For you purposes it should have two polices - one police for normal people, another police for criminals :)

I just say they they point their AK's at you. I know. I've been pointed at. And searched. It's an experience one hardly can forget.
