In late October 2022, six men were detained in Minsk for allegedly hanging a stitched white-red-white flag along with the Ukrainian flag on power transmission line supports in Minsk on October 7. They were Igor Tepteyev, Yuriy Nesterenko, Viktor Grin'ko, Valery Balabeshko, Vladimir Savelyev, and Igor Tikach. The next day, Anton Motolko's Telegram channel posted a photo of the flag and the caption: "Minsk residents congratulate the Ukrainian people on the wonderful news from the Crimean bridge. Crimea is Ukraine! Long live Belarus! Glory to Ukraine!"

Tepteyev said in a pro-government film that he has known the other defendants in the case since childhood. According to Igor, he did not think that hanging the flags would lead to criminal liability. The flag was made back in March, Igor kept it at home for a long time, and then gave it to Yuri.

According to propagandist Gladkaya, Igor's wife was forced to leave Belarus due to persecution for the events of 2020. She is now in Poland, and the man with his small children is in Belarus.

According to the prosecution, Gerasimovich desecrated the national flag by pulling the flag by its cloth while intoxicated and throwing it to the ground. After that, the flag was damaged and its staff was destroyed. The property damage to the organization on whose building the flag hung was estimated at 89 rubles - that is how much the accused must pay in compensation.

The man admitted his guilt in full and said that he pulled the flag by accident so as not to fall. He had no intention of desecrating the state symbol of Belarus.

The court considered that if the accused did not admit to intentionally desecrating the flag, he did not fully understand his responsibility and did not repent, so he decided to impose a punishment associated with imprisonment. Although the expert concluded that the accused suffers from chronic alcoholism and needs compulsory treatment.

On 03.03.2023, the appeal was considered and the verdict came into force.

According to human rights activists , he was released in the fall of 2024, having fully served his sentence as determined by the court.
