In Ivanovo, the rector of the museum-reserve of folk life was detained, who beat a pregnant woman

Employees of the FSB Office in the Ivanovo region detained the rector of the autonomous non-profit organization "Museum-Reserve of the People's Household" Alexander Shevtsov, convicted of brutal circulation with his followers. The suspect, who is a doctor of psychological sciences, a professor at the Baltic Pedagogical Academy and a member of the Russian Writers Union, created a movement like a totalitarian sect. Shevtsov applied physical impact to his fans, and a video was published on the Internet in which he beats a pregnant woman "for adultery" in front of her husband.

Searches were conducted at the place of residence of Shevtsov and the Museum-Reserve, reports Ivanovonews .

As the investigators established, under the guise of ANO "Museum-Reserve of Folk Life", located in the village of Rogatkino, Ivanovo district, in 2004 the organization "Trox people" ("Troorusia") was created, unregistered in the prescribed manner, but which is a public association. Her activities were associated with violence against citizens, including women and children, with causing physical harm to their health.

Based on the teachings of Shevtsov and under his leadership in the unification on a permanent basis, seminars were held, during which the leader of the movement systematically applied physical violence to students and exerted psychological pressure on them. Propaging his teaching, he also incited seminarians to beat, insult and humiliate other participants in classes.

On August 22, 2014, the Investigative Department of the Federal Security Service of Russia in the Ivanovo Region against Shevtsov opened a criminal case under Part 1 of Art. 239 ("Creation of a non -profit organization encroaching on the identity and rights of citizens"). The criminal under this article threatens to four years in prison.

At the place of residence of the detainee and searches were carried out in the Museum-Reserve. Documents and information carriers were seized. The issue of the election of a defending measure is being decided.

Note that the scandal around Professor Shevtsov and his organization erupted in early July 2014. Then in the Internet blogs and on the Rucrash portal a minute video appeared, shot at one of the seminars held by the resident rector. In it, Shevtsov approached a woman who squatted off the wall, and brutally beat her. The victim was done several very strong slaps in the face.

The victim meekly demolished humiliation, behind which was observed at least a dozen other participants in the seminar. A husband with blindfolded eyes sat on her right hand. When the woman bent to him, trying to hide from the slap in the face, Shevtsov grabbed her hair and continued the beating. He also insulted the victim, calling her "creature" and "bitch".

The reason for the reprisal was that the victim allegedly "lured" a man.

Witnesses claimed that the victim was at that moment in the sixth month of pregnancy. She came to the seminar with her husband and daughter. Together with her husband, the victim was the sole owner of a rather large Yaroslavl enterprise with a multimillion -dollar turnover of Salo and Honey. But then for some reason his assets were recorded in the Ivanovo company, the two thirds of which are owned by Shevtsov and his wife, and only 34%belong to the victim. At the same time, the Shevtsov spouses occupy the posts of general director and financial director.

Former member of the Troorus sect, Oleg Shatokhin, said in an interview that thoroughly psychological processing was carried out and people were bred to profit from their money. Participation in seminars cost about 30 thousand rubles, but those who wish from all over the country still come to them.

On one of the published videos of Shevtsi, he beat his driver in the face, calling him a "canaphone." Then he continued the beating, using a wooden block, wrote the 37.ru portal.

According to the witnesses of this reprisal, the driver "either quickly rode, or slowly, or he brought him out."

“It is necessary for him to break his hands, and then send it to the operation,” Shevtsov said during an execution. “Mix his arms and legs. Let him operate. Then - like Kotz - fear will appear. Put the pens, go to do the operation.”

The Shevtsov called Kots another follower, to whom he broke both hands with a wooden stick. On this fact, a criminal case was opened under Art. 112 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation ("intentional infliction of medium severity of harm to health"), but it was closed "in connection with the expiration of the statute of limitations" (the victim filed an application only five years later).

According to witnesses, Shevtsov beat people of all ages - from infants to the elderly. But no matter how he cripples the sectarians, they perceived everything for granted, said in one of the blogs . This was facilitated by a certain psychological processing: Shevtsov convinced the victims, which causes beatings for their own good and by their consent. In addition, he justified his actions by the centuries -old traditions of Russian culture.

It is worth noting that the authorities approved the "educational" undertakings of Professor Shevtsov. Thus, the Department of Culture of the Government of the Ivanovo Region provided him with administrative and media support, and also sent schoolchildren to the reserve so that they "get acquainted with Russian culture."

Another dark side of the activity of Alexander Shevtsov is due to the fact that he often changed sexual partners, looking for them among the youngest fans. He convinced the girls that in a past life he was supposedly their father. When they became adults, Shevtsov took them to his wife. Some later got married, but could return to the "shepherd" again.

Earlier, the police have already conducted checks on the statements of citizens about beatings. But criminal cases were not instituted.

Professor with hand -to -hand combat skills

Alexander Alexandrovich Shevtsov was born on April 15, 1955. He has the degree of Doctor of Psychological Sciences and is a professor at the Baltic Pedagogical Academy, as well as a member of the Writers' Union, says his personal website .

In the 1970s, the future head of the museum-reserve studied at the History Faculty of Ivanovo State University. And in 1998-99, he received the second higher education in the Yaroslavl Industrial and Pedagogical College with a degree in Practical Psychology.

"In the mid-1980s, Shevtsov held ethnographic fees in the Savinsky district of the Ivanovo region, and later held about 500 seminars.

In 2012, he established Russian School LLC, which is engaged in debugging. Debugging is a type of psychological work that allows you to change the work of the enterprise and production relations so that the enterprise brings income.

In 1985, during ethnographic gatherings, the Shevites were carried away by hand -to -hand combat. In 2010, it was recognized as a national sport in the Ivanovo region. Since then, two of the students of Shevtsov received sports categories in hand -to -hand combat, including the CCM.

In 2007, Alexander Shevtsov published the book "Russian Battle on Lyubka", and in 2011 - "The initial course of hand -to servants."

"The historian by education, Alexander Shevtsov very carefully and reverently refers to Russian culture and Russian heritage and in 2006 founded the museum -reserve of folk life, the rector of which is currently," the site said.

Shevtsov owns large collections of people's life, thanks to which the reserve has become one of the attractions of the Ivanovo region. In 1998, the professor began to publish a series of "Complete Collection of Russian Tales." 17 volumes have already been published.
