Russian YouTuber and prankster Vitaly Zdorovetskiy, widely known by his online handle 'VitalyzdTv', is set to be deported to Russia after serving a nine-month prison sentence in the Philippines. The move, confirmed by Philippine authorities on Thursday, 15 January 2026, marks the end of a turbulent legal chapter that has seen the 33-year-old's multimillion-pound fortune come under significant strain.
According to the Bureau of Immigration (BI), Zdorovetskiy has resolved all criminal cases filed against him in Taguig City, including three counts of unjust vexation, theft, and public harassment. 'The penalties imposed have been considered served,' stated BI Legal Division Chief Alvin Cesar Santos. Despite holding a US green card, Zdorovetskiy is a Russian citizen and will be escorted directly to Moscow in the coming weeks, as reported by ABS-CBN News.
