“The fine imposed on Raimonds E. by the police is reasonable and proportionate to the seriousness of the administrative offense committed – the extract from the Registry of Administrative Offenses shows that Raimondas E. has been repeatedly punished for similar administrative offenses with a minimum and close to the average fine, he was not prevented from continuing to commit illegal acts or administrative offenses, ”said Judge Regina Bertašienė.
According to the court, by being in a public place and without wearing protective equipment that covers the nose and mouth (masks, respirator or other equipment), Raimondas E. violated the provisions of the Government Resolution, since the prohibitions and restrictions foreseen In the law. The acts are mandatory for all residents of the country.
“A person’s subjective belief that he or she or other people are not sick does not exempt them from the legal obligation to wear a protective device that covers their nose and mouth in a public place during quarantine,” the judge emphasized.
The maximum fine provided by law was imposed on a Klaipeda resident after an incident at a Maxima store in the port city; Without the mask that covered his face and nose, the buyer was tried to discipline the store, but did not respond to the demands, so the police officers were summoned.
“I have the right to convictions, as stupid as they are”
At the time, a Klaipėda resident who spoke categorically before wearing masks explained that “you have the right to have your own beliefs and express them freely.”
“In my opinion, the mask is absurd, it does not help and does not work during Chinese popcornovirus, it damages and can ruin my health and my immune system,” said the man. – I am entitled to my beliefs, no matter how stupid or unpopular they are. The mask has been scientifically proven to be unhealthy and does not protect against this “disposable virus” – people get bacterial pneumonia from wearing the mask. I believe that the choice of human rights and freedoms is violated. “
Raimondas E. also explained that although he was in the store without a mask, no shopper was bothered.

“I ran into the store cashiers and the security guard, who complained to the cashier, then he took the merchandise from me like crazy, saying he wouldn’t sell without a mask,” the man explained to the court. – Then I went to pick up the same item from the shelf again. I had a scarf in my backpack, I put it on my face without covering my nose, I need to breathe. But they still didn’t like it, although it didn’t really need a mask. And then they called the police. “
According to the malicious offender, the police officers also ignored his views on wearing masks.
“I believe that imposing fines is not a fight against a pandemic, it is simply a means of intimidation,” said Raimondo E. And if there is no such data, no one can be administratively sanctioned.
In addition, the man stressed that during the entire quarantine period, which is supposedly “illegal by law”, no employee of the store attended him without wearing a mask, but he was not prosecuted for it.
“I do not belong to the risk group, and the agitation for the necessary use of the mask is excessive, because it did not represent any threat to those around me,” said Raimondas E, his truth.
“The ice cream does not say that it is sold only with a mask”
At the time, the police officers came to the store to explain the conflict, saying that even with them, the buyer also wore a protective device that covered his nose and mouth, and told them repeatedly when writing the violation report that he was “quite imposing the absurd.” laws “.
“You can write me a protocol, because only you can do it,” the videos made by the officials show how Raimondas E. resented the patrols in the performance of their duties.
At that time, in another case, it was established that Raimondas E. had been fined 500 euros when he visited the Lidl store in Klaipėda without a mask covering his face and nose. Here the man went to buy ice cream, but since there were masks, the saleswoman refused to serve him.

“It was not written on the ice cream packaging that it was sold only with a mask,” Raimondas E presented his arguments in court. That was done, and then the police threatened me that if I did not pay a fine of 250 euros, I would have to pay 500 euros, but I have doubts about such fines, I think the state police need. “
However, such arguments by Raimondas E. did not convince the judges of the administrative misconduct cases against him.
According to them, quarantine restrictions and bans are mandatory for everyone, without exception, and Raimondas E.’s claims that he did not pose a risk of spreading dangerous diseases because he does not belong to any risk group are absolutely unfounded.
“A person’s subjective belief that he or she or other people are not sick does not relieve them of the legal obligation to wear a protective device that covers their nose and mouth in a public place during quarantine,” the court noted.
According to the court, the responsibility falls on anyone who does not comply with the government order and does not wear face and nasal masks in stores. And it does not even matter if it has been established that this has in fact had specific consequences for other people, that is, whether or not the person has been infected with coronavirus:
