According to local media such as Bechernya Moscow, A, a man living in Russia's Tumen region, has completely changed his name and surname every year to avoid child support.
A court official in the Teumen district said "The man tried to 'initialize' the debt record, including child support, by changing his name and then returning to his original name a year later."We tried to avoid tracking the authorities for years in this way, but in the end, it was a pointless attempt," he said.
The official also stressed that "If it is changed, the child support debt cannot be avoided because the information is automatically transmitted to the court in charge and the public institution."
In addition to this man, there are a series of cases in the Tumen region that try to avoid debt in various ways.
One man claimed to be suffering from 'agoraphobia' to avoid a visit from the bailiff, but actually owned two apartments, one of which was subject to seizure.
The incident is a prime example of how serious the issue of child support avoidance is in Russian society, and local media pointed out that it is reawakening social awareness of parents' avoidance of responsibility.
