Lithuanian President's Office gets envelope with odd substance

BC, Vilnius, 12.02.2016.Print version

The Lithuanian President's Office on Friday received an envelope containing a substance of unclear origin, informs LETA.

 

The press service told BNS Lithuania that the envelope had been received at the Document Handling Division, and operations of the President's Office have not been interrupted.

 

"The VIP Protection Department took over the envelope for further analysis and handed it over to relevant institutions. The office of the president is working as usual," said the press service.

 

This is the second security incident involving the President's Office over the past two years. Last April, a man was detained outside the office after threatening to detonate himself. Empty bottles were later found in the suitcase he had with him. Security measures were stepped up after the incident.
