In May 2021, the Investigative Committee accused Pavel Kazadaev of participation 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 for religious activities: meetings, joint worship services, attraction of new supporters.
This was followed by mass searches of Jehovah's Witnesses in Altai krai. The law enforcers searched the house of Pavel's relatives in the village of Lugovoye, as well as his flat in Novokuznetsk (Kemerovo region), after which the believer was taken to Barnaul for interrogation.
After twenty-four hours in the isolation ward, Pavel was given restriction of travel. At the end of June 2022, the criminal case was brought to court.
In April 2023, Pavel Kazadaev was sentenced to a 3-year suspended sentence. In August, the appeal court toughened the sentence, replacing the suspended sentence with imprisonment in a penal colony for 3 years.
