Prime Minister S. Skvernelis stated that there were many problems in Telšiai.

“It just caught our eye then. Those who release an on-duty officer are responsible for his inadequate disability. In Telšiai County, this is not the first such case with the death of an officer, there are apparently systemic problems in terms of the police station. I see this is not the first time that officials receive inadequate instructions, inadequate inspections, and so on, a lot of problems there that the Commissioner General must solve, “the prime minister evaluated the events at the Seimas on Tuesday.

When asked who should take responsibility for the fact that the deceased officer was not wearing a safety vest, S. Skvernelis said it was the responsibility of the immediate superior.

“Direct Head. The Head of the Commission is responsible for ensuring that the work of officials is properly organized so that officials are properly protected. The measures are there, but if they are used (not used – ELTA), there is no need to discuss now whether they would have been saved, that is not the point. If an officer has to have a certain team when he goes to work, he should do it, “said S. Skvernelis.

S. Skvernel said there is now no point in discussing whether a protective vest would have saved the officer.

“The tools are there, but if they are not worn, there is no need to discuss whether or not they would have been put away. If an officer has to use it, he must do it, ”said S. Skvernelis.

As Ramūnas Matonis, a police spokesman, said on the Delfi Diena show on Monday, although safety vests are required, not everyone wears them. Officials complain that it is uncomfortable to drive with them, it is too hot. Skvernel gave a strong word to those officials.

“If you feel uncomfortable, you should think about what type of service you work with. Many things are uncomfortable, uncomfortable for us to be wearing masks, but we have to do it, we have to be careful, “the Prime Minister told officials.

Delphi He recalls that on Friday the police received a report about a violent man who set fire to his house in the village of Birbiliškės, an old man in Viekšniai, Mažeikiai district. The suspect (born 1968) greeted the arriving patrols with gunfire. Seriously wounded, S. Žymantas soon died. The killer was found dead at a fire station.

According to Greta Frajerytė, Telšiai County Police Representative, S. Žymantas began working with the police on June 11, 2001. He was promoted 12 times during his tenure, most recently in 2018. In November, he received a commemorative badge of third grade for his years of service.
