“On January 28, 11 of the 17 board members signed this presentation and presented it to the board,” Edgaras Kuturys, a board member, confirmed to BNS on Tuesday.
The Siena Center for Investigative Journalism was the first to report on this.
The initiators of the procedure are based on two decisions of the Chief Official Ethics Commission (COEC) and the Ethics Commission of the Municipality of Pagėgiai. K. Komskis was recognized as violating the Law on the Reconciliation of Public and Private Interests. Reference is also made to the court ruling adopted at the end of December, which rejected K. Komskis’s complaint about unfavorable conclusions of the municipal commission.
The members of the Council propose to initiate a process against K. Komskis “for breach of his oath” and for breach of the laws on coordination of public and private interests and local self-government.
Since the violations are clear, I think the answers are clear.
Pagėgiai mayor Vaidas Bendaravičius told BNS that a commission would be formed to investigate the circumstances and that the council should decide “within about a month” whether to apply to the court for the loss of K. Komskis’s powers.
“Since the violations are clear, I think the answers are clear,” said V. Bendaravičius.
Komski himself told BNS that the rulers were trying to remove him due to criticism and called it coping.
“It just came to our attention then. I’m in a position to write that it doesn’t allow them to sleep soundly, so I came up with a deal and everything. The paperwork is just beginning, they haven’t started yet. Yes, of them 11, they have a majority. But Everything is decided by the court, not by them, “said the politician.
I’m in a position to write that it doesn’t allow them to sleep soundly, so I came up with a deal and all.
In December last year, the COEC stated that K. Komskis confused his interests when he represented the Kalibrus company thirteen times before the Municipal Administration of Pagėgiai in 2020 when concluding contracts and agreements on contracting, landscaping and improvement of the ecological status, reconstruction and other plays.
At that time, the Pagėgiai Municipality Ethics Commission indicated that at the council meeting held at the end of August 2019, K. Komskis did not withdraw from the issue of permission to work with confidential information for his brother, the director of the Virginijus Komskis municipal administration. At the end of December last year, the Regional Regional Administrative Court rejected V. Komskis’s appeal against this decision.
As Siena announced on Monday, the Attorney General’s Office confirmed that it had initiated a pre-trial investigation into the bankruptcy of Agrolira, a company owned by K. Komskis and his son Algirdas Komskis, in order to secure possible civil lawsuits and extended forfeiture. of assets. So far no complaints have been made to anyone, neither K. Komskis nor A. Komskis admits their guilt for any crime.
The initiators of the expulsion of K. Komskis emphasize this information without including it in the procedure for presumption of innocence.
If the court determines that a council member has breached the oath, revocation of his or her term requires two-thirds of the votes of the council members.
