Novosibirsk told about the daring escape from the captivity of the cartel in Paraguay

According to the Siberian, he was in Paraguay illegally, and was captured by cartel members shortly before his escape. On the night of November 1, he managed to get out of the place where he was being held.

“I picked up a bottle of 0.75 liters of beer, smashed one in the head, and struck the face of the other with a rose. He ran into the street and chased the one on the bike, just to intimidate, the man said.

Then he tried to escape from the pursuers. He first hid in a ditch under the bridge, then climbed over the fence and took refuge in the toilet of someone else’s house, hoping that the owners would call the police and help him.

However, the appeal to law enforcement officers did not bring the expected result. The man feared police might hand him back to the people he ran away from. In order to stay at the station, he admitted that he was a CIA agent and that help was supposed to come for him.

“Close to 7-8 a.m., I was doused with a hose and thrown into the street,” the man said, describing what happened at the police station.

Novosibirsk also said that the kidnappers left his bag with documents. Now he can be sought by cartel members and their accomplices. He tried to find support among the local Russian-speaking community and appealed to the Russian Embassy, but, according to him, they did not believe the story.

He said he arrived in Paraguay legally on October 19, 2025. The permitted period of stay was 90 days. In the near future, according to the narrator, he planned to return to Russia.

Earlier, MK in Novosibirsk reported that two young people were arrested in the case of kidnapping a man and extortion.
