Sergey Oleinikov and Yan Alekseychikov were found guilty of climbing on the roofs of administrative buildings, tearing off state flags from the local House of Culture and the village executive committee, and then throwing them on the ground. At this time they were in a state of alcoholic intoxication. The side of the state prosecution was sure that the men acted in a group of persons by prior agreement and wanted to "express a disdainful attitude towards the state symbols of the Republic of Belarus."

According to human rights activists, he was released in the winter of 2023.
