He told the story of the Boychuk family since the disappearance of Alexander in 2022 while trying to leave Mariupol. Kutepov remembered how he was looking for the commander of the trailer “Genichesk” and how he contacted his son Vyacheslav who fought at that time.
For more than a year it was not known whether Alexander was alive. The last thing they heard about him was how he was tortured and beaten for a long time after the detention, Kutepov wrote.
However, subsequently, the commander of the trailler “Genichesk” was learned on the video from one of the colonies in the temporarily occupied territory. After that, there were “months of wandering” of his wife Oksana (also military), until Alexander was included in the lists for exchange, and again the “months and years of expectations” that he will be exchanged. Even with large -scale exchange “1000 per 1000“ He was not returned. His return was announced during a relatively small exchange.
“And a week ago my wife calls me, sobs into the phone. My heart stabbed me,-this is what it is due, perhaps, only because of something the most terrible. And then, it turns out, sobs from an unexpected wave of joy. […] Then eyewitnesses retold literally, as the commander of the Navy explained why he called Boychuk “Sasha 16”: the Russians demanded one 16 captives for him! Such a man! ”He said.
Kutepov remembered how they were waiting for Alexander’s return from captivity, but in the photo and video among those who were exchanged, he was not.
“So know that not everyone is returning from captivity in a comfortable bus, wrapped in new flags, under the orchestra and fosovski. Like Boychuk, who was brought quietly and in the carriage of” ambulance. “It is not known exactly how the Russians systematically molested his Cossack health, but it is no less accurately known that Vyacheslavovich is tuberculosis and even his wife to form with him for the next week. It is forbidden, ”the military emphasized.
He emphasized that the Boychuk family experienced a lot, so I did not want to bother them these days. But on August 21, Kutepov decided to write to them and asked him to “cut at least two words” like them.
“The son died,” he heard in response.
Kutepov published an excerpt from his film, where in 2017, when the son of Boychukov Vyacheslav was going to enter the first year, then also to serve in the sea fleet, his parents with hope and pride speak of his son.
“The father in a difficult physical state finally leaves the orkovsky captivity. Heaven! It would seem finally at home, and his health is Cossack, he will be treated. Imagine! All these years the son fought in anticipation of the liberation of his father. And now they did not even have time to see,” Kutepov informed.
“So that each of us knew and understands what Russia is. This is evil and pain. This is a country,” he summed up.

The ship tried to hide, but it caught up with a boat with Russian special forces. They threw the ship with noise grenades and landed on a trawler. The sailors fought off hoses and chains. Boychuk got an butt on the head, fell and lost consciousness. In the end, the “Genichesk” moored at the pier, and the crew members went ashore. Boychuk, along with his family, left for the territory controlled by Ukraine.
