In a post on his Facebook account on the social network, the minister says he did not expect this and saw no reason not to trust the detainee in the face of the coronavirus pandemic.
“Today’s news of the arrest of Šarūnas Narbutas, head of the Oncology Patients Association (POLA), was unexpected.
There was a lot of communication with this person about work when he started working as a minister. At that time, he was the health adviser to the head of state Dalia Grybauskaitė. Later he became an active public figure representing the interests of patients.
During the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19), when there was such a need for concentration and unity in the country, he offered not only help but also other organizations, their leaders and representatives to control the spread of the insidious virus as quickly as possible. At that time, we accepted any proposed assistance from the country, because the situation was very difficult, not enviable and the only way out was to mobilize all of us.
With the team, we saw no reason not to trust this energetic young man. So this message is like a clear sky. You really want to believe that this is just a bad dream.
The transparency of this transaction, when coronavirus test reagents were purchased, should not be questioned.
Therefore, during this pre-trial investigation, SAM will work closely with the police and provide the necessary information, as in previous cases. Today, STT officials at SAM took the necessary procedural steps and spoke to responsible personnel. No charges have been made against any Ministry employee, “writes A. Veryga.
Delphi remembers that Š. Narbutas is suspected to be exchanging effects by mediating the purchase of coronavirus testing reagents by the National Public Health Laboratory (NSAID).
On Tuesday, the STT also questioned government chancellor Algirdas Stončaitis and vice chancellor Lukas Savickas.
