47 year old Oleg was born in Krasnoyarsk, but in 2000 he moved to Belarus and has already received citizenship. 

In the film on the ONT TV channel, they showed how the Ukrainian terrorist Nikolai Shvets was detained on March 4 at Oleg's house in the «Berezovaya Roshcha» garden association in the village of Chertyazh (Borovlyansky Village Council).

Sychev with his wife Nastya Pilko was detained by law enforcement officers on March 3 in the same house.

According to human rights activists, both of them are now in the pre-trial detention center of the State Security Committee.

The detained couple has two juvenile children who are now with their grandmother.
