AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Vladislav Shuliko, who is said to be a world record holder for swimming, has converted to Islam.
He had reportedly set a new world record in August by swimming across Issyk-Kul lake in a period of 5.5 days.
He swam some 180 kilometers which is equal to 3,600 Olympic swimming pools.
According to the Iranian cultural office in Bishkek, the athlete has embraced Islam.
Issyk-Kul is an endorheic lake in the Northern Tian Shan mountains in Eastern Kyrgyzstan. It is the seventh-deepest lake in the world, the tenth-largest lake in the world by volume and the second-largest saline lake after the Caspian Sea. Issyk-Kul means "warm lake" in the Kyrgyz language; although it is located at an elevation of 1,607 metres (5,272 ft) and subject to severe cold during winter, it never freezes.
