He was arrested and given a one-year suspended sentence (incidentally in accordance with article 190 of the Penal Code).

His sentence was much lighter than that of another organizer of the same meeting, Vladimir Bukovsky, who got three years in a labor camp.

On September 1, 1967, together with Bukovsky and Kushev, he was sentenced to 1 year (conditionally) as a participant in a demonstration on Pushkin Square in defense of Galanskov, Dobrovolsky, and Lashkova.
