After finishing school, he entered the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science at BSU. Since 2005, he has been working in IT.

At the end of 2021, Solozhentsev moved to Warsaw. There he opened an individual entrepreneurship and got a job at RunMyLease, where he holds the position of Tech lead.

Sergey's main hobby is ballroom dancing. In 2024, he and his partner won two gold and one silver at dance competitions in Poland in the 40+ category.

Then Sergei returned to Belarus. It is not known when exactly this happened, but the last time he contacted was at the end of October 2024. The trial of the IT specialist took place in the Grodno Regional Court. Judging by the fact that after the trial Solozhentsev never appeared online, he was sentenced to a term in a penal colony.

Once the sentence takes effect, you can only write letters to the prisoner. Under Art. 85 of the Penal Code of Belarus, convicts cannot receive money transfers from anyone other than close relatives. Parcels are also only possible from relatives. If you want to help, support the family directly if this option is available on the prisoner's page.
