V. Sviderskis, the lawyer representing J. Sadauskienė, stated on Friday that his client’s legal team intends to vigorously contest any pre-trial detention measures in court.
The lawyer asserted that while certain forms of judicial restraint are acceptable, arrest was deemed excessive and unnecessary. Sviderkis acknowledged that the prosecutor holds a differing view on the matter, stating that the legal process would determine the outcome. He commented that while the emotional aspects of such legal proceedings are understood by all parties, the current situation does not equate to a determination of guilt.
Despite the disagreement with the prosecutor’s position, the lawyer indicated that Sadauskienė was prepared to cooperate with alternative conditions. He specified that the client would agree to wear a monitoring bracelet and pay a cash deposit. Furthermore, he emphasized that she has established social ties, family support, and permanent residence, and has no intention of evading authorities or interfering with the investigation.
According to the lawyer, alternative measures such as a deposit combined with house arrest are suitable options, noting that the client has a history of working and engaging in legal activities within the community. Sviderskis concluded by reiterating the defense’s firm stance against immediate incarceration.
