Speaking in the Seimas before the vote, A. Daugėla regretted the mistake made, but raised the question of whether it could lead to the termination of her long-term job for the state and obtaining social guarantees.
“Is this error, not even related to my performance as a judge and that it can only be considered as an administrative offense, so serious as to deprive the State of all its return for my long service, still being useful in the legal sphere? ? Is my mistake equivalent to serious crimes or even crimes? “Said A. Daugėla from the Seimas rostrum on Thursday.
He noted that his firing process began even before the blood test results were available, which differed significantly from the alcohol tester data.
The police previously reported that A. Daugėla had gotten drunk behind the wheel of the police in Kaunas district on June 1. It was discovered that he had a drunkenness of 1.82 per thousand.
A blood test showed 1.16 per thousand. A judge told BNS on Thursday that according to the data, he no longer faces criminal but administrative responsibility.
A.Daugėla has worked as a police investigator for three years, served as a judge for 29 years, was president of the Klaipėda Regional Court Division and later head of this court.
According to presidential adviser Jūratė Šovienė, sitting drunk at the helm, the judge damaged the authority of the courts and undermined the public’s trust in the courts.
The Kaunas Regional Prosecutor’s Office is conducting a pre-trial investigation due to a drunk driving judge.
The judges of the SCL are appointed and removed by the Seimas at the proposal of the president.
