Alex Leslie, a follower of pickup coach, was detained in Moscow.

A man from the Tula region was detained in Moscow, who, on the advice of blogger and pickup coach Alex Leslie (present. name — Alexander Kirillov) took part in the filming of scandalous videos. This was announced on June 27 by the official representative of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia Irina Volk.

"My colleagues from the metropolitan police have detained one of the young men who, on the advice of a pseudo—coach, took part in the filming of scandalous videos," Wolf wrote on the Telegram channel.

According to her, the person involved will soon be transferred to the investigative authorities.

On June 25, Leslie, against whom a criminal case was opened on incitement to rape, said that the girls who suffered from harassment were "typical victims." In his opinion, a "confident" woman would not have asked for help. In addition, the influencer called himself a "pickup guru" and said that he conducts seduction courses.

Later, members of the musical group NLO (Not Like Others) said that the actions of Leslie's followers who harassed women were unacceptable, since it was impossible to violate a person's personal boundaries even with self-confidence.
