From 2013 to 2015, Aleksey did alternative civilian service in Krasnoyarsk at the post office. He was prompted to make such a choice by Bible-based beliefs. He says: "I have had faith in God since childhood, but when I found out that his name was Jehovah, I was very impressed, I wanted to know more."

Case History

In November 2025, the Investigative Committee in Kansk opened a criminal case against three believers — Andrey Sorokin, Yelena Kamenskaya, and Yelena Grosheva. The case was triggered by a report from a woman who pretended to be interested in the Bible. Searches were carried out at the believers’ homes. Sorokin, Kamenskaya, and Grosheva were detained; later, Andrey was placed under house arrest, while the two women were restricted from certain activities. In December, all three were added to the Rosfinmonitoring list. In March 2026, another defendant, Aleksey Pislyakov, was added to the criminal case, and Sorokin was restricted from certain activities.
