In one of the interviews, Nevzorov admitted that in childhood, together with his grandfather's assistant, he was repeatedly present at the safe houses, where the priests came to testify. In simple words, they simply reported on their own parishioners when, for example, they confessed something to them.
In February 1975, the commission of the local military registration and enlistment office sent 17-year-old Alexander to a compulsory examination in a mental hospital. The guy deliberately behaved inappropriately in order to avoid military service. As a result, he managed to achieve his goal.
