“How’s your job? You see, everything is stricter with us. We have 76 prisoners who belong to the agricultural brigade, do the job according to their positions, including ushers and builders. They do more determined work, but they can also participate in individual activities. We also have a carpenter. But I work with the recruiting brigade, with people who come out the doors, but this problem is more for the resocialization department. The squad commander creates the activities individually, of course, it’s up to him what he can do, what tools to have. ” 15 minutes R.Markauskas explained.
However, it has not yet been possible to specify how people in correctional homes can participate in individual activities, what are the limitations and opportunities.

Vilna Council member Donalda Meiželytė made no secret of her surprise that she was included in the list of lucky people: she received a benefit of 600 euros. According to her, a developer who expected to receive lump sums had to request and record in one of the articles exactly how much he had lost at the agreed rates during the quarantine.

D. Meiželytė herself attributed two events to the lost royalties: the holding of a theater festival, which supposedly included performance moments, and a larger event with a live sound group. According to Donalda, it was not a private event, the coordination was carried out through the event organizers.
