Lithuanian president reinstates prosecutor general

BC, Vilnius, 30.08.2014.Print version
President of Lithuania Dalia Grybauskaite, following the Constitution and based on the ruling of Panevezys City District Court to terminate the pre-trial investigation, signed a decree reinstating Prosecutor General Darius Valys into office, informs LETA/ELTA.

The prosecutor general was suspended from duties until the final decision was made in the investigation carried out by the Prosecutor's Office.

 

Panevezys City District Court ruled in favour of Panevezys Regional Prosecutor's Office decision and terminated the pre-trial investigation in relation to Valys, after the parties participating in the process reconciled. This ruling of the court ended the investigation process.

 

Valys will return to office as there were no circumstances left for the prosecutor general to remain suspended.

 

Prosecutor General Darius Valys had asked to be temporarily suspended himself, so that circumstances of the car accident, which happened almost three years ago, would be comprehensively and objectively determined.
