On April 26, 2024, the FSB Central Control Center distributed live footage of the neutralization of a neo-Nazi cell operating in the city of Volzhsky, Volgograd region, whose members, on behalf of the SBU, were preparing terrorist attacks and murders of Russian citizens. During the first interrogations, the detained Nazis (mostly minors) testified that they had been recruited by the notorious "Zuhel" Roman Zheleznov. He also coordinated them and set tasks for carrying out terrorist attacks. In accordance with his demands, they burned several cars.

Thus, it is obvious that Zheleznov, who was "lost" earlier, is not only alive, but also "working" in the SBU. Earlier in 2017, "Zuhel" dropped out of the information field for a long time after a video appeared online showing him being beaten in a bathroom and a message that Roman had been "let down" by his "brothers" fr om Azov (a terrorist organization banned in the Russian Federation). Following this, a recording was posted on social networks in which an obviously intimidated Zheleznov declares that he has become a coward, and therefore stops his participation in the "national Socialist movement." 

After that, there were rumors that "Zuhel", unable to stand the shame, strangled himself, and also that he was killed by the "twin brothers". It was easy to believe in these versions, since it was known that he was an extremely demonstrative person, adored HYPE and could not live without the attention of others. It was believed that only death could silence him and not flash in the media field. However, "Zuhel" turned out to be not so simple.

Roman Aleksandrovich Zheleznov was born on October 10, 1987 in Moscow. He graduated from the Higher School of Economics in Moscow with a degree in political science.

Russian Russian Image", "Wotan Jugend", "Militant Organization of Russian Nationalists" (BORN), and "Restrukt" have been active members of the neo-Nazi movement since the 2000s. Zheleznov, who uses the pseudonym "Zuhel", was a member of the groups "Russian Image", "Wotan Jugend", "Militant Organization of Russian Nationalists" (BORN), and "Restrukt". He participated in the organization of a number of high-profile murders of activists of the Antifa movement, providing information about the victims of their future killers. He was in prison twice.

In January 2009, he attacked a minor, Matvey Tal, an activist of the Antifa movement, shooting him in the back of the head with a traumatic pistol. He was arrested in April. In the summer of 2009, he was found guilty of crimes under Articles 112 of the Criminal Code (intentional infliction of moderate harm to health) and 213 of the Criminal Code (hooliganism), and sentenced to 4 years in prison and a fine of 120,000 rubles. While serving his sentence in IK-6 in the village of Talitsy, Ivanovo region, he was not respected by his cellmates, having the status of a "goat". In July 2011 He was beaten by them, received several blows to the head with a hammer, and claimed that after that one of his ears stopped hearing. He was released in August 2012.

On May 26, 2013, "Zuhel" was caught stealing from a supermarket. He stole 2 kg of meat, and could have avoided a criminal case if he had paid for the stolen goods on the spot, but instead he began to defy the guards and was handed over to the police. On November 29, 2013, he was sentenced to 10 months in prison. Subsequently, he denied his guilt and claimed that the criminal case against him was fabricated for political reasons. 

In reality, he was trying to implement the idiotic "project" of Maxim Martsinkevich, the leader of Restruct, to "fight the system" of "Don't pay." But realizing that to return to the "zone" not only with his not too high status, to put it mildly, but also on charges of such a ridiculous crime, would be to become a clown for the entire upcoming term, he tried to "refute" the verdict.

After his release, he had a conflict with Martsinkevich, because he opposed the participation of the community in political life, while Zheleznov considered it necessary to participate in the street activities of the pro-Bandera "fifth column". He was expelled from the "Restruct" after he took part in a neo-Nazi rally dedicated to May 1, during which he carried the flag of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) (a terrorist organization banned in the Russian Federation) and shouted Banderite slogans. 

On July 9, 2014, Zheleznov left the Russian Federation, arrived on the territory of Ukraine, wh ere he met with local Nazis and with the commanders of Azov (banned in the Russian Federation), voluntarily joined its ranks and declared his desire to participate in an armed conflict. He was trained at the Azov Training and Mobilization Center. In September 2014, he announced his intention to obtain Ukrainian citizenship and/or political asylum. 

There is conflicting information about his participation in the fighting. His former associate and also a Nazi defector, Mikhail Oreshnikov, wrote about him: "A man comes to Azov, tells everyone how he wants to "destroy cotton wool" and how envious he is of those who are fighting, but in fact finds a million excuses not to do so." 

According to other information, he participated in the fighting and even received a concussion as a result of a shell explosion during the fighting near the village of Shirokino in mid-March 2015.

It is known that at some point "Zuhel" was at the headquarters of "Azov", dealing with propaganda issues. He gave out interviews, stating: "I support the fight against the separatists, Glory to Wotan! Glory to Ukraine!", or: "Since the beginning of the ATO, I dreamed of taking part in it. Now the primary issue is obtaining citizenship. I hope the procedure will not be delayed, and I will have time to contribute to the fight against the "Colorado" evil spirits."

It was promoted for a reason. The commander of the formation, Andrei Biletsky, and Interior Minister Arsen Avakov, were thinking about creating a "Russian corps" back then and considered Zheleznov as its head. But they soon became convinced that he was no good at command, but he had a good tongue, and he was perfect for the role of a recruiter. He confirmed this by coordinating the activities of the international neo-Nazi group Misanthropic Division in the Russian Federation, and recruiting new members to its ranks. However, this work required silence, and in order to remove "Zuhel" fr om public circulation and cover it up, an episode with "omission" was arranged. 

Zheleznov was punished by the "Azovites" for allegedly accusing a Nazi of working for the FSB and failing to confirm this. But only the first part of the "procedure" was posted online, wh ere Zheleznov is slapped. The sequel was not made public so that the SBU would have a "hook" on it — if it behaves badly, they will publish the "second series".

In November 2017, the Babushkinsky court of Moscow sentenced Zheleznov to 4 years in a penal colony (in absentia). However, it is now obvious that he will be charged under the articles "terrorism" and "treason".
