Pentecostals were accused of causing serious mental and physical stress in their members by their practice of severe fasting and states of ecstasy as well as trances during their services. Their clergy were tried and sentenced to hard labour periodically. For example, Pentecostal pastor, Kondrakov, in the Donets Basin mining area was accused of causing reactive psychosis in his congregants and was sentenced to eight years of imprisonment.
