On that occasion, it requested the Government to indicate whether the suspension of Mr Petras Grebliauskas from his post as vice-president of the Lithuanian Trade Union “Solidarumas”, has now been lifted and to communicate the results of the pre-trial investigation launched on 30 January 2006 into the legitimacy of the action of Mr Grebliauskas when transferring the part of the building belonging to the union. The Committee further requested the Government and the complainant organization to indicate whether all seized items, during the search of the union office on 31 January 2006, including the union computer, have since been returned and whether the trade union can now have access to its accounts.
