On March 4, 2025, rapper Oksimiron, known as Miron Fedorov, was accused of sexual abuse involving underage girls by three women—Vera Markovich, Vika Kuchak, and Viktoria Mikhailova—in the podcast "Doch razboynika" by journalist Nastya Krasilnikova. All allegations stem from the years 2008 to 2013, during which the individuals were minors.
Vika Kuchak, now 29 years old and living in California, began communicating with Oksimiron at just 13 years old. Their interaction started when she reached out to him via VKontakte, and he responded positively, commenting on her photographs. According to Kuchak, their correspondence lasted for three years, transforming from friendly exchanges to inappropriate sexual discussions.
Recalling the start of their relationship, Vika stated, "I was sitting there just shocked... For me, he was like someone from another planet." A self-described introvert and displaced from her surroundings as she faced bullying, she saw Oksimiron as an escape. Their correspondence often took on disturbing tones, with Vika recounting how he opened up about his fantasies and began to pressure her about her appearance and sexuality. "He transitioned to commenting on my looks, speaking about what he would like to do with me," she revealed.
When she turned 16, Vika attended one of Oksimiron's concerts intending to finally meet her “friend.” To her dismay, she stated their meeting was cold and indifferent, contrary to her expectation of warmth and connection. She reflects back, stating he gifted her a CD inscribed: "To my Vika from the freezing old man from London.” This seemingly dismissive sentiment reflected how he treated her, simultaneously relegated her to nothing more than fan awkwardness.
Later, Vika found herself alone with him, where she claims he sexually assaulted her. "It was completely not what I expected," she shared. Oksimiron allegedly confirmed her age and proceeded to engage her without her consent, equipping her with the horrifying realization, "I openly state now, it was rape." The mechanical way he acted, devoid of emotional interaction, only exacerbated her trauma. Vika described their encounter as cold and disconnected, stating he showed more interest than respect.
Markovich, the first guest to speak on the podcast, detailed her own troubling experiences with Oksimiron starting when she was just 15 years old. Introduced through his role as her guardian and mentor, this relationship quickly warped its dynamic, leading to similar allegations of manipulation and abuse. Her accounts detail how he engaged her sexually without her affirmative consent, emphasizing the pervasive emotional strain during and after their relationship.
Accusations against Oksimiron don't stop with these two women. Viktoria Mikhailova, who was still attending the ninth grade during her encounters with the rapper, described receiving text messages of sexual nature and requests for intimate photographs. She provided screenshots illustrating the manipulation and coercion, with Oksimiron urging her to fulfill these “tasks” aimed at sexualizing their relationship.
When Krasilnikova reached out to Oksimiron for comment on these accusations, he read her message but did not respond. Earlier accusations of inappropriate behavior existed, primarily during the rapper’s relationships involving significant age gaps, leaving many to question how he managed to interact with vulnerable minors.
Among the statements showcased during the podcast, Vika Kuchak candidly noted, "He never even apologized to me. He groomed me from 13 years old when I was still in the seventh grade." Her frustration resonates as she points to the insidious nature of grooming—using the years of emotional manipulation leading up to the assault as leverage over vulnerable young girls.
The podcast's revelations highlight a troubling pattern of Oksimiron’s behavior spanning years, which left lasting psychological effects on his victims. Vika remarked on her struggles with PTSD stemming from the incidents and her relationships with other alleged victims.
Notably, many women have opted to stay silent, fearful of the same scrutiny Vika faced, yet expressing their own experiences of coercion and humiliation at the hands of the rapper. "It got out of control... He forced others to engage sexually, making them feel trapped and ashamed,” Mikhailova revealed through her accounts.
The consequences of these allegations raise questions not only about the artist but also the environments enabling such predatory behavior, especially concerning women involved. With Oksimiron now at the center of public scrutiny, many are left to wonder about the cultural and systemic failures apparent in allowing him to maintain contact with minors.
Activists and advocates are now demanding accountability as more voices peer from the shadows of denial and silence behind these stories emerge. With these revelations, the industry cannot afford to overlook the needs of those previously voiceless.
Both Kuchak and Markovich's stories, along with Mikhailova’s troubling revelations, weave a narrative marked by victimization born from manipulative and hostile practices. The thread connects their shared experiences and highlights the urgent need for wider discussions around consent, power dynamics, and the consequences of predatory behaviors.
Despite the silence from Oksimiron, the accusations will keep resounding through public consciousness, forcing peers, allies, and the society to confront these uncomfortable truths. The dialogue remains necessary as victims seek validation of their experiences and justice for the pain inflicted on them.
