The Kaunas District Court issued a ruling last Tuesday, rejecting the requests made by two lawyers seeking to exonerate their client, R. Jakštys, concerning the abuse of minors. Furthermore, the court declined the request to postpone the execution of his existing prison sentence.
R. Jakštys remains convicted of the charges stemming from the abuse of minors. According to case data, these criminal acts are reported to have taken place between 2018 and 2020, during a period when Mr.
Jakštys was employed as a youth mentor. Separately, the Kaunas County Police Board confirmed an arrest that occurred on Friday. Odeta Vaitkevičienė, head of the Communications Section at the Kaunas County Police Board, informed reporters that the suspect was apprehended by officers from the board.
Ms. Vaitkevičienė stated that the arrest followed the receipt of documentation, confirming that officers were present at the designated addresses when the individual was taken into custody. These developments relate to ongoing legal proceedings involving the former youth mentor.
The actions taken by law enforcement underscore the continued investigation into the serious allegations. The consistent involvement of the Kaunas authorities, from the court system to the police board, highlights the ongoing legal attention surrounding the case. The successful apprehension of the suspect reinforces the police’s ongoing efforts to secure the individual in connection with the charges.
