The case was initiated after showing the film 'Anatomy of Protest-2' on the 'NTV' TV channel. Lebedev was accused of organising mass riots on the Bolotnaya Square on May 6, 2012, and preparing to organise mass riots in different regions of Russia. He agreed to a plea bargain; the case was considered under a special procedure; on April 25, 2013, he was sentenced to two and a half years in a penal colony. On April 24, 2014, he was released on parole.
