On October 7, 2021, Alexei was detained and sentenced to 15 days of administrative arrest for allegedly resisting police officers. While in the Okrestina temporary detention center, he was placed in solitary confinement, where he was subsequently detained again, this time in connection with the criminal case.

In February 2022, he was found guilty of participating in a post-election protest that took place on September 6, 2020, in Minsk, as well as of transmitting information about Senior Warrant Officer E. Korzik to the chatbot of the Telegram channel "Black Book of Belarus."

In July 2022, Alexey's sentence was changed from "chemistry" to "house arrest."

Alexey left Belarus.

In October 2024, a court hearing in absentia was held as part of a special proceeding on the issue of replacing the restriction of freedom without sending the defendant to an open correctional facility.
