At the end of August 2021, Yauhen was detained in Lida. He was later found guilty in a criminal case opened under the article on insulting Lukashenko and sentenced to restricted freedom with referral to an open-type correctional facility. The details of the case are unknown.
In October 2022, Yauhen and other political prisoners were detained right at the correctional facility during a raid by security forces and then sentenced to administrative arrest.
According to human rights defenders’ calculations, he was released in autumn 2023 after serving his full sentence.
