“It just came to our knowledge then. In Lithuania we are no longer surprised that one or another ruling leader begins to doubt the investigations carried out by the law enforcement institutions and their decisions, applied principles, etc. I have two knowledge of this .
One message is that the rulers want to influence law enforcement and stop the investigations that are now underway. This is obvious. The second thing that gives me a little more sense of democracy is that they still don’t control the law enforcement institutions, which often worries us, ”said G. Landsbergis in the Seimas.
August 28 A. Širinskienė appealed to the Attorney General to assess whether the data published in the article of the Lithuanian Radio and Television Investigation Division “Rapid tests for 6 million: Skvernelis team is shaken by scandalous purchase” the August 24 of this year are not the data from the FNTT’s pre-trial investigation.
A. Širinskienė has not yet received a response from the prosecution, but assures that if the investigation is not initiated, he will go to court.
“In my opinion, the material from the pre-trial investigation was possibly used in the LRT investigation. Correspondence miscellaneous, the text itself contains references to who met and on what day, etc. Such things cannot really be collected without special media Either the LRT has gathered them somewhere, or it was (…) the material of the pre-trial investigation.
As is well known, the material of the pre-trial investigation cannot be made public and there is a risk of criminal liability for those who are obliged to keep that information. The criminal responsibility in this case would not lie with the media, but with those who leaked even though they had to keep the information. I asked the prosecution to assess whether the material from the pre-trial investigation is not transported through the city, “he told Eltai.
ELTA recalls that the FNTT is conducting a study on 6 million purchases of rapid coronavirus tests worth EUR. According to the FNTT, the purchase agreement was concluded due to a possible falsification of documents.
The first vice-rector of the Government, Lukas Savickas, was interviewed in a study by the FNTT on the purchase of rapid coronavirus tests. He received the status of a special witness. Media also reported Wednesday that Jonas Kairys, the prime minister’s health adviser, was questioned as a special witness. Special witness status means that a person can become a suspect.
LRT’s Research Division has previously announced that L. Savickas made the decision to start the acquisition in March.
At the time, Prime Minister Saulius Skvernelis said Wednesday that he saw no reason for L. Savickas and J. Kairis to resign from their current positions.
