Biography
Since Denis Kuzyanin unexpectedly ended up behind bars, his wife has been forced to take care of her little daughter alone. A believer faces a long prison term just because he believes in Jehovah God.
Denis was born in September 1984 in the north of Russia, in the city of Norilsk (Krasnoyarsk Territory). He has an elder sister.
As a child, Denis was fond of sports and cars. After graduating from a vocational technical school, he worked as a signalman, and recently was an individual entrepreneur.
Denis's elder sister was the first in the family to become interested in the Bible, followed by her mother and Denis himself. He was especially impressed by the accuracy of the fulfillment of the prophecies recorded in this book. In 2001, Denis embarked on the Christian path.
Driven by his peaceful convictions, Denis took advantage of the right to replace military service with an alternative civilian one. He served three years in Khabarovsk.
At the invitation of a friend, Denis moved to Samara, where he met his future wife, Elena. They got married in 2012. Elena shares her husband's religious views. She works as a salesperson and loves to sew in her free time. Denis likes to travel and play sports. The couple are raising a daughter.
Forced separation is not easy for the Kuzyanins. Relatives and friends of the family are perplexed why they are persecuting a peaceful and kind believer who has not committed any crime.
