A girl from the Klaipėda region experienced hell: the violence abroad continued for even 5 years(1)

Law enforcement data reveals that a young girl was subjected to repeated abuse over a five-year period, spanning from 2017 to 2022. The accused individual is reportedly a family member connected to the mother’s friends. According to the prosecutor’s statement, the severe acts of violence perpetrated against the minor occurred while both families were abroad.

The details of the abuse remained undisclosed until the girl’s mother returned to Lithuania. Upon discovering the extent of the mistreatment, the mother immediately alerted law enforcement agencies in Klaipeda. Authorities promptly opened a criminal case file.

Following a thorough investigation and the collection of substantial evidence, police successfully apprehended the accused. The case highlights a significant gap in recognizing child safety when families are temporarily outside their home country. The investigation confirmed a pattern of sustained abuse against the girl, perpetrated by someone within the social circle of the family.

The legal proceedings are currently underway, focusing on the charges related to the prolonged violence. The actions taken by the mother and the subsequent swift response from local law enforcement have led to the arrest of the suspect, marking the culmination of a long and difficult effort to protect the minor.
