Live and act
When his parents were expelled from the USSR in 1928 , he stayed in the Soviet Union. He maintained regular correspondence with his father and mother, which ended on December 12, 1934 with a last letter from him. Sedov had refused to testify against his parents. On January 27, 1937, Pravda reported that Sergei Sedov had tried to poison workers. Sedov was sentenced to death and deported. Finally, he was murdered in the Vorkuta camp in 1937 without ever having contact with his parents again.
Sergei Sedov had been a teacher at a technical university after studying mathematics and mechanics. He was employed as an engineer for gas generator construction. He did not follow his father into politics.
In 1988 he was officially rehabilitated in the USSR.
