On 24 December 2020, Kuzhelkov's home in the Moscow region was searched, and Kuzhelkov was taken for questioning to the Tambov region and then detained.

On 1 March 2022, Kuzhelkov's preventive measure was replaced with a ban on certain actions. On 27 May 2025, the court sentenced him to six and a half years of suspended imprisonment. On 16 October 2025, the court of appeal replaced the suspended sentence with a real one.
