In the background of the “Foxpay” scandal – a look at the past: how famous searches and cases are changing the political map of Lithuania

The news that came out on Wednesday that the law enforcement, while investigating the Foxpay case, arrested not only the owner of the company Ieva Trinkūnaitė and her cohabitant and father of the children Vilhem Germanas, but also the husband of a conservative member of the Seimas, former minister Monika Navickienė, caused speculation about how the Seimas elections would have ended for the conservatives if it would have happened before the first round. 15min reminiscent of previous high-profile law enforcement investigations that have ruined the careers of political stars and even parties.
