Case History

Oleg Sakun faced searches and interrogations in February 2021. Stress seriously affected the health of the believer and his wife, who soon died from complications of coronavirus. In August 2023, several searches were again carried out in the Kovrov district of the Vladimir region. The Investigative Committee opened a criminal case against Sakun. He was accused of extremism for his peaceful religious activities. After two days in the temporary detention facility, the believer was placed under house arrest for 4 months. In May 2024, the materials of the criminal case were transferred to the court. In March 2025, the verdict was announced—a fine of 250,000 rubles.
