The legal proceedings concerning the case were recently transferred to the Kaunas District Court. However, the jurisdiction remains subject to change, as the decision regarding potential transfer to judges in another city is anticipated by the middle of June. The prosecutor overseeing the investigation, identified as prosecutor Asta Bernatavičienė, provided confirmation to the news portal Lrytas regarding the current legal status.
According to the prosecutor, a relative of a colleague has been formally charged. The charges filed against the individual include violations under Articles 138, 253, and 284 of the Criminal Code. These articles pertain to charges of health disorder, the unlawful possession of a weapon, and a public order violation.
During the proceedings, the prosecutor confirmed that the accused does not admit guilt regarding the charges brought against him. The ongoing case has drawn considerable media attention, particularly due to connections to past high-profile investigations involving a former politician from Jurbarkas. The focus of the current legal action centers on the specific charges laid out by the state prosecutor.
The procedural developments underscore the complexity of the case as it moves through the judicial system. While the case is currently before the Kaunas court, the uncertainty surrounding its final judicial venue adds an element of suspense to the proceedings. The prosecutor’s office continues to manage the indictment, maintaining that the charges reflect violations of multiple criminal statutes, despite the defendant’s stated lack of admission of guilt.
