Biography
A peaceful citizen of Solikamsk Vladimir Poltoradnev worked in the field of cleanliness. In July 2020, law enforcers searched his home, and the believer was placed in an isolation ward for 4 days. Now the man will have to defend his right to freedom of religion in court.
Vladimir was born in 1962 in the village of Krasnoschekovo, Orenburg region, in a family of ordinary toilers. He has three elder sisters. As a child he was engaged in various active sports: athletics, basketball, skiing. In 1982, after military service with his parents, he moved to Orsk, later to Kuvandyk, and then settled in Solikamsk (Perm region).
Vladimir graduated from the Russian Correspondence Institute of Textile and Light Industry in Moscow, where he became a mechanical engineer for sewing equipment. He was an individual entrepreneur for 18 years.
In 1999, Vladimir got acquainted with the Bible. This ancient book made an indelible impression on him. He was especially surprised by the fact that biblical prophecies are fulfilled in our time. Vladimir was so glad that he found answers to serious questions about life that in 2001 he decided to take the Christian path. Inspired by the example of the father, his two daughters joined him in a study of the Holy Scriptures.
Vladimir leads an active lifestyle: he likes running, swimming, skiing and skating. Due to house arrest, he was deprived for some time of the opportunity to support himself and go out into the fresh air, which made him feel worse. Relatives of the believer think that criminal prosecution is unfair and illegal.
