Nadezhda, the vocalist of the band IRDORATH, was detained on the evening of August 2, 2021, at a dacha near Minsk while celebrating her birthday with other musicians and guests.
In December of that year, she was found guilty of "organizing and preparing actions that grossly violate public order, or actively participating in them" for her participation in post-election protests that took place in Minsk in 2020.
She was released in April 2023, having fully served her sentence as imposed by the court.
