Yulia, a choral conductor and backing vocalist for several projects by the band IRDORATH, was detained on the evening of August 2, 2021, at a dacha near Minsk during the birthday celebration of IRDORATH vocalist Nadezhda Kalach, along with other musicians, as part of a criminal case.
In December of that year, she was found guilty of "organizing actions that grossly violate public order, as well as training or other preparation of individuals to participate in such actions" for her participation in post-election protests that took place in Minsk in 2020.
She was released in October 2022, having fully served her sentence as imposed by the court.
