Biography

On March 13, 2019, at least seven civilians were searched in Severodvinsk (Arkhangelsk region) because of their beliefs. The investigation suspects that one of them, Sergey Potylitsyn, participated in religious services. What is known about this man?

Sergey was born in 1981 in Severodvinsk, a mechanic-repairman for the repair of industrial equipment by profession. He has two brothers and a sister. He likes to go to nature, pick mushrooms and berries, fish.

One day, Sergey learned from his relatives that the Bible convincingly explains where everything came from, as well as why there is so much injustice in the world. This prompted him to delve deeper into this book and change his life. Paradoxically, this attracted the attention of law enforcement agencies of Severodvinsk. "The family is friendly, everyone is worried about each other," says Sergey about his family's reaction.
