I heard that Professor Suren Arakelov got mental disorder and ceased research. However, a brief search on the Russian wikipedia page showed he was placed in a psychiatric hospital because of political dissent.
Since in Soviet Union days a healthy person can get into psychiatric hospital because of "sluggish schizophrenia", it is unclear to me whether he was really sick. Perhaps he was tortured and that is why he stopped research? Is he still alive? Does he still give lectures in Moscow?
The whole Arakelov theory obviously owe its foundation to Arakelov's ground-breaking work in 1970s. The invention of Faltings height is stemed from Arakelov theory. I am wondering what is the current situation of Prof. Arakelov (no email, no physical address, only some dubious reports on wikipedia). The whole situation sounds like John Nash, except Arakelov have not recovered.
I ask at here because I honestly do not know who else to ask (I do not know anyone else graduated from Gubkin Russian State University of Oil and Gas in my university).

The page kvm.gubkin.ru/istoria_kaf.html that describes the history of the department of "higher mathematics" at Gubkin State Univ. of Oil and Gas doesn't mention Arakelov at all.

There are memoirs by Mikhail Zelikin in Russian. He knew Arakelov personally and quite explicitly describes what happened to him.

A few days later the following happened. Solzhenitsyn was arrested. Suren Arakelov, a loyal disciple and follower of his great teacher [Shafarevich], decided to fight the regime. He made two posters - on his chest and on his back - with the inscription: âÂÂFreedom for Alexander Solzhenitsynâ and went to Red Square. There he was arrested and sent straight to the Serbsky Psychiatry Institute. He was discharged a couple of years later. Igor Rostislavovich [Shafarevich] came to visit him and was amazed at the change that had occurred. The inner fire of his soul was trampled and extinguished. He was not interested in mathematics, or politics, or even the attention of his once beloved teacher. After a while he got married, found some routine job and turned into an average man. On this occasion the specialists from the Serbsky Institute have brilliantly demonstrated their professional competence. They turned a genius into a âÂÂnormalâ mediocrity.
