Dmitry was found guilty of leaving a comment on Telegram on October 27, 2020, under a video of Lukashenko's speech, which, according to the prosecution, was aimed at portraying him as humiliated in the public eye.
In February 2025, as part of the special proceedings in Dmitry's case, a hearing was held in absentia to consider replacing his restriction of freedom with a prison sentence in a penal colony. The outcome of the hearing is unknown.
