The Prosecutor General's Office has been cooperating with Swiss law enforcement agencies which collected and transferred documents highly important for the investigation.
The documents were submitted to the FNTT officers on 15 December in Zurich. After assessing their significance, the Lithuanian Criminal Police Bureau and Europol were addressed requesting to ensure the security of the documents and officers carrying them.
Cooperating with Swiss, German and Polish colleagues, the FNTT officers were escorted all the way from Zurich to the Polish-Lithuanian border.
As reported, the Lithuanian Government terminated bank Snoras activities on 16 November 2011. On 24 November 2011 the Bank of Lithuania addressed the court requesting to initiate bankruptcy proceedings. The bankruptcy proceedings were initiated on 7 December 2011.
