He is a resident of St. Petersburg. In April 2025, he was detained by members of the “Russian Community” activist group, who then handed Parr over to law enforcement officers. He was taken into custody on charges of publicly justifying terrorism. According to those close to him, the basis for the charges was his anti-Russian and anti-government posts. His VKontakte page contains several posts with harsh statements against the war and Putin, including expressions of approval for the incursion into the Kursk region. It is unknown which specific posts led to the prosecution.

Parr was later also charged with inciting extremism.

On 28 January 2026, the court sentenced him to six years in a general-regime penal colony.
