Interior Minister Agnė Bilotaitė, Commissioner General Renatas Požėla and Vilnius County Police Chief Saulius Gagas promise to provide more detailed information on police work on New Year’s Eve and over the long weekend at a short press conference Thursday at noon.

Since mid-December, when a traffic ban between municipalities was introduced, officials at checkpoints have handed over 31,000. transport. Almost 16.5 thousand. The cars rolled over during the long Christmas weekend.
