Latvian Saeima deputy Locmele-Lunova suspected of tax evasion
The Saeima Mandate Committee told LETA that it has not received from the authorities any order for Locmele-Lunova to be handed over for prosecution.
Locmele-Lunova herself, in a statement, says that this is a matter of "vengeance for her active political and community work."
On April 23, it became known that a criminal case was
submitted
to the Prosecutor's Office, where its
status is replaced from the witness to the suspect. "We
are talking about the case, which was five years ago, and during those five years
I transferred for the investigation all the necessary documents. The
investigator had no issues", – said Locmele-Luneva in a statement.
"I
believe I must formally declare the party members, Saeima colleagues and the voters
that all charges brought against me is the lie and I am ready to prove it in
the Prosecutor's Office and in any court", – said Locmele-Lunova.
The MP
has already complained to the Prosecutor's General's Office.
