Alexander was arrested on August 22, 2021, near the dacha of V.O. Sukalo, Chairman of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Bashkortostan, for attempted arson. He was possibly provoked by a KGB officer.

In March 2022, Alexander was convicted of "act of terrorism" and sentenced to imprisonment in a maximum-security penal colony.

Sentences

Trial outcome 21.03.2022
10 years of imprisonment in colony under enhanced security conditions.

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.
