As the representative of the court, Tautvilė Merkevičiūtė, informed BNS, the request to terminate the administrative proceedings was returned to A. Kandrot’s lawyer, because the applicant missed the appeal deadline, and did not ask the court to extend it.
On January 25, A. Kandrots received an administrative fine of 140 euros for not complying with the legal demand of the police officers to get out of the car and submit documents, and for resisting the officers by force when arresting him.
The defender requested the court to cancel this decision in a late appeal.
The police arrested A. Kandrotas in mid-January, on the same day when the Lithuanian Court of Appeal sentenced the man to imprisonment in two cases of financial crimes.
A. Kandrots broadcast his arrest on the Facebook social network – the video shows him refusing to get out of the car when asked by the police, even after being warned that physical coercion will be used.
Eventually, the officers dragged the man out of the car in which the woman and children were traveling at the time.
The person is currently serving a combined prison sentence of two years and ten months in Vilnius prison for financial crimes.
A. Kandrots is also on trial in the so-called case of riots near the Seimas.
