That day, Alexander and a friend went to visit and got tipsy. We went out into the street and talked about political topics. Then a woman approached, made a remark and sharply demanded to shut up.

As it turned out later, this second woman called the police with a message that “there is a company of 8 people in the yard, they are scolding the authorities, calling Lukashenko a traitor and a fascist.” After 23 minutes, police appeared in the yard and took Trush and his friend to the police station.

On January 13, 2023, the appeal was considered and the verdict came into force.

According to human rights activists, he will be released in the winter of 2024 after fully serving the sentence imposed by the court.
