Born Mokhmad Taisumov lived in the war torn town of Grozny Chechnya. Not long after being born, Grozny was bombed by the Russians. Seeing as it was not safe, his family needed to move out. So like many people they moved to Russia. Growing up in russia was hard for his family. Trying to find work and places to live left them very poor. Living in these poor neighbor hoods, Mokhmad grew up in a bad crowed. He ran with a group of gangsters who he considered his second family. They were their own family called the Paschenko's. After years of drifting appart from his poor family and getting closer with the Paschenko's, Mokhmad decided to fully dedicate his time and life with them, and leave his old life behind. He was a lot better off with this family then his own. He started going by the name Mokhmad Paschenko.
