Viktor was born in the Russian Federation, but has Belarusian citizenship. He lived in Ratomka.

The Linkedin page indicates that since 2018, Viktor has worked as a senior communications engineer at customs. This is probably what the criminal case against the man for "abuse of power or official authority" is connected to.
