Biography

From a young age, Alexandr was interested in deep spiritual issues, together with his mother and sister he seriously studied the Bible. In 1999, he was baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Alexander was the first in the Orenburg region to achieve for himself the realization of the constitutional right to replace military service with alternative civilian service: because of his peace-loving convictions based on the Bible, Alexander could not take up arms.

Alexander met a girl who shared his religious views. In 2002, he and Natalia got married, after 3 years they had a daughter, Anastasia, to whom they also instill high Christian standards of morality, respect for people of different views. Nastya masters the flute, loves to read. As a family, they found time to skate, depending on the season, rollerblading or skating. Together they dreamed of getting a four-legged friend.

Alexander's entire family, including his brothers who do not profess his religion, are in acute pain because of the unfair arrest. "You're the best dad in the world," his daughter wrote in a letter addressed to the jail.
