The media announced that in July 2019, G. Skladas and D. Žukauskas, who had taken paternity leave, together with a famous lawyer, who later came to the attention of the Special Investigation Service, arrived from Lithuania to the village. of the businessman Raimondas Karpavičius. in Tenerife, Spain, and required rested people to move in within two hours.

After this event, D. Žukauskas was temporarily removed from his post and G. Skladas was transferred to head the Kaišiadorys police. He voluntarily resigned a year ago.
“When a high-ranking police officer emerges in a conflict situation in another country, there is reason to believe that the police system is unofficially supporting one of the parties to the conflict, thus discrediting the entire police force, thereby debasing the name According to the court, the factual data was sufficient for that, “a VAAT court representative previously said.
Last December, the Regional Administrative Court also ruled that Mr. Sklad had demoted the officer’s name in Tenerife and that the order of the then acting Kaunas Police Chief Elan Jablonskas establishing him was legal.
The court that heard Mr. Sklad’s complaint at the time determined that the officer had to realize that in a conflict situation involving the destination of a high-value property abroad, accompanied by one of the interested parties and Entered the villa without permission, behaved unethically and biased. .
According to the court, the actions of G. Sklad and D. Žukauskas allowed people to form a reasonable opinion that the Lithuanian police and certain high-ranking officials unofficially support one of the parties to the dispute, and the involvement of such high Officers’ charges can have a psychological impact on any participant in the situation.
“ Any person directly confronted with such a situation (…) may reasonably be (…) led by the applicant to believe that the police officers are following the instructions of one of the parties is biased in that the police, in his or her environment, have wide discretion, can take various coercive measures or vice versa, they will not react adequately if they turn to the police for help, ”said the court.
