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.

She was convicted for a single donation of $20 to an initiative later designated an "extremist group." The donation, presumably to aid victims of repression, was made back in 2021, when the initiative had not yet been designated an "extremist group." The case consisted of only eight hearings, and it was heard over two months—from November to January. The verdict came into force on April 28, 2023, after an appeals court hearing.

On March 19, 2026, he was pardoned after another visit to Minsk by US President Donald Trump's special representative, John Cole (among a group of 235 prisoners left in Belarus).
