Biography

Tatyana Dodolina was the only child in the family. She was born in 1995 in Yugra (Kemerovo region). Her mother, a plasterer-painter, is now retired.

After school, Tatyana learned to be a manicure master. Before her arrest, she worked for some time in a dining room. Tatyana is fond of reading and dancing and also loves to travel and spend time with friends.

Tatyana became one of Jehovah's Witnesses in 2008. "By learning more and more about Bible truth and applying its advice in my life, I was able to get through adolescence more easily and avoid many of the problems and mistakes that my peers made," she said.

In 2019, Tatyana married Yevgeniy, who is also under investigation because of his faith. Relatives of the Dodolins worry about them and consider their arrest groundless.

Case History

After searches in Tomsk in March 2025, three married couples of Jehovah’s Witnesses were detained. The Investigative Committee initiated a criminal case for organizing the activity of an extremist organization and participating in this activity. The next day, the court sent Vladimir Pushkov, Aysulu Tastaybekova, Yevgeniy Abramov and his wife Yana, Yevgeniy Dodolin and his wife Tatyana to a pretrial detention center.
