Andrei, a designer, was arrested in late January 2022 as part of a criminal case for group actions grossly violating public order. In July of that year, he was convicted of participating in protests that took place in Minsk in 2020. He was sentenced to restricted freedom with a referral.
In December 2024, a court hearing was held to discuss the issue of replacing the restricted freedom sentence with a prison term in a penal colony. The outcome of the hearing and Andrei's presence at the hearing are unknown.
