Bishop, holder of the parish of "The Church of Christ the Saviour. New Generation." His premises were searched in August 2022, after which he was taken into custody on charges of organising the activities of an "undesirable" organisation. VK Press claims that Ulitin (or another defendant in the case, Nikolai Bogoslavskii) "created an entire network" in Russia to collect donations for the Ukrainian battalions Azov and Aidar. On 18 July 2023, Ulitin was sentenced to three and a half years in a general regime colony. Presumably, he was released in July 2025.
