Previously, the well-known provocateur worked closely with NEXTA.

Political prisoner Viktar Pantseleeu was serving his sentence in prison #15. Uladzimir Chudzentsou was also serving his sentence there. Viktar told Nasha Niva that he saw and heard about his actions behind bars.

“He worked against his own and others. I tried to keep him at a distance and not to talk to him, although our bunks were near.

If he does not like something, someone is going to open the window or in the aisle between the beds, he says something twice, and the third time he goes to complain. The administration liked him, he was the first person with an extremist profiteer who left the status of a malicious violator, everything is fine there.

He bragged that he was a businessman, made NEXTA, and brought Protasevich into it.

Earlier, several political prisoners had already said that Uladzimir Chudzentsou was cooperating with the administration.

Uladzimir Chudentsou was detained in November 2019 in a train to Poland. Drugs were allegedly found in his belongings. The final indictment was as follows:

Part 2 of Article 343 (dissemination of pornography knowingly to a minor) – 2 years;

Part 1 of Article 328 – drug possession;

Part 1 of Article 14, Part 1 of Article 328 (attempted illegal transportation of drugs across the border) – 4 years and a fine of 27,000 rubles.

In the 1990s, Chudzentsou (then under the name Zuev) was the author of propaganda articles about the opposition. Later he was considered one of the authors of the NEXTA telegram channel.

Chudentsov's sentence term ends in a few months.
