Alexander, the manager of the York store, was arrested in November 2021 in a criminal case related to the "Busly Lyatsyats" initiative. Some of the charges concerned damaging the car of a Borisov district judge. As a result, he was sentenced to a long term of imprisonment.

In September 2023, it became known that Alexander was transferred to a hospital for convicts in the village of Kolyadichi near Minsk for a planned operation. At the end of October of the same year, he was transferred back to the penal colony.

Once the sentence takes effect, you can only write letters to the prisoner. Under Art. 85 of the Penal Code of Belarus, convicts cannot receive money transfers from anyone other than close relatives. Parcels are also only possible from relatives. If you want to help, support the family directly if this option is available on the prisoner's page.
