Blogger Skirmantas Malinauskas has stirred controversy by presenting new allegations concerning substantial procurement deals in Širvintos, Lithuania. Malinauskas claims these deals involve "Vilmstata," a company owned by businessman Vilmantas Guobys, and has shared these details on his Facebook page.
The crux of Malinauskas's revelations centers on the connection between "Vilmstata" and the mother of Širvintos Mayor Živilė Pinskuvienė.
