View in the Persecution DatabaseBiography
Resident of Komsomolsk-on-Amur. On May 25, 2023, he was searched as part of a case of involvement in the activities of an extremist organisation due to his involvement in the Jehovah's Witnesses community.
Representatives of this community are prosecuted under extremist articles solely on the basis of their religious activities: holding meetings and worship services and attracting new supporters.
On October 1, 2025, the court sentenced Shitov to a six-year suspended sentence.
