Artyom was detained for the first time on November 16, 2020 after the March of the Elderly. But he was not detained at the place of the march, but when he was already returning to the hostel: Artyom was dragged into a car and beaten, then sentenced to 15 days. On March 24, 2020, before Freedom Day, Artyom was detained again. On March 25, a video appeared on Azarenka’s Telegram channel in which Artem confesses to administering the public. To force him to say this on the video, Artyom was beaten with batons on his back and buttocks. During the interrogation on April 19, Artem told the lawyer.
Artem was supposed to be released on April 18. But on April 16, he was re-arrested as a suspect under Art. 361-1 part 1 of the Criminal Code. He was transferred to Volodarka, and on April 26 he was charged under the same article. On November 29, 2021, a closed trial began in the Minsk City Court, as a result of which Artem was found guilty under two articles of the Criminal Code: Part 1 of Art. 361-1 and part 1 of Art. 342.
