Mikheev was in custody. Then he was transferred to a psychiatric hospital for six months, after which he was returned to the detention centre. Later it became known that he was charged with the 1st, milder, part of the article on committing a terrorist act, but the charge of undergoing training for the purpose of terrorist activity and treason was also added - the transfer of money to the legion "Freedom of Russia" appeared in the case. On 27 January 2025 Mikheev was sentenced to eighteen years in a strict regime colony.
