Lena was arrested on Aug 8, 2020, at her poll station and then sentenced to 12 days in jail for petty misdemeanor. She had to serve 6 days of this sentence and throughout this time she was in the Akrestina detention center, a police station in Minsk, Minsk region detention center and Zhodzina prison.
