Yaytseslav reportedly approached women in various locations, including malls and streets in Kenya and Ghana, recording them without their consent.
He is suspected of using Meta glasses to document his escapades, leaving some women embarrassed and exposed to online humiliation.
However, a few women featured in the clips openly rejected his advances.
How did Kalekye meet Yaytseslav?
One such woman, Kalekye, has spoken out about how they met and why she turned down his advances.
The young woman said she was in Ngara waiting for a friend when Yaytseslav approached her. He gave her his number and asked if they could meet later that same evening. She agreed, though she admits she had very different expectations.
She initially believed he was genuinely interested in getting to know her. However, her assumptions quickly changed when he sent her the location of his apartment.
“I thought he would take me to Villa Rosa Kempinski or somewhere nice. But he sent me the location of where he stays,” she said.
To her, this was an immediate red flag. They barely knew each other, yet he was inviting her to his Airbnb.
“It was March 2025. It felt very strange; we were complete strangers, and he was already asking me to come to his Airbnb,” she added.
Kenyan lady who met Russian man goes for HIV test
In a recent video, Kalekye shared footage of herself at a clinic undergoing an HIV test.
This followed online claims that the viral Russian man was HIV positive and allegedly attempting to spread the virus to women he became intimate with.
However, Kalekye clarified that she was not getting tested to prove anything to anyone, but simply to know her own HIV status for peace of mind.
The clip showed a health worker pricking her finger to draw blood for the test. She did not share the results, leaving some of her followers anxious and speculating in the comments.
Netizens react to Kalekye testing for HIV
The video of her getting tested sparked mixed reactions online, with some supporting her decision while others questioned why she needed the test.
Eccy:
“HIV takes three months before you can know if you’re affected.”
Onyii Tulia:
“Why are you getting tested if you did not get intimate?”
Stacy:
“She said they met in March, so three months have passed. She is telling the truth, she did not go.”
Chebet:
“You should have used PrEP first, because results can take three months. Don’t judge, sometimes you don’t expect such things. Hopefully everything will be fine.”
What is Russian man’s true identity?
Previously, TUKO.co.ke reported that a Russian platform SHOT had shared personal details of the viral Russian man.
