Media: There is little doubt that the Utena official was assassinated

On February 23, Utena police issued a press release to the media about the missing municipal employee Audrius Remeikis (born 1969).

The next day, the missing person was found dead. The body was found near Aukštakalnis park, where A. Remeikis left the house on Taikos Street for a walk on Monday morning at 7.30.

Claims to have been murdered

According to sources from Anykšta, it is possible that the stab was in the neck of the human body found. A. Remeikis went for a walk in the park on Monday morning. His body was found in a pine forest near the Norfos store on Kupiškio Street. People did not walk behind that pine forest, and the man who came out of the house with the shoes could have no reason to wade through the middle.

According to the news portal, it is speculated that the head of the administration of the municipality of Utena may have been killed elsewhere, and his body was transported (or moved) to a more remote location by the murderers.

One of the versions published by the media is that A. Remeikis may have noticed people carrying out criminal activity. Possibly her being in the wrong place at the wrong time and costing her husband his life.

The police await the conclusions of the experts

On Thursday, Delfi contacted a Utena police spokesman, who said comments would be made after receiving the experts’ findings. A pre-trial investigation into the cause of death is currently underway.

Many volunteers helped police officers find the body from the disaster on Tuesday. It is said that after learning of the search for the missing, some 200 volunteers gathered and rushed to help officials. The police reported that the municipal community of Utena, employees of various institutions, shooters, police sympathizers, hunters and other good-hearted people had helped.

Had health problems

Police said Tuesday that a pre-trial investigation was launched to determine the cause of death.

It is said that several versions will be reviewed, but it is suspected that A. Remeikis may have died from health problems.

Utena Mayor Alvydas Katinas told BNS that A. Remeikis had not been able to work due to health problems in recent weeks and that this week he was going to Vilnius for treatment.
