Lithuania’s Probation Service will step up checks in September on people convicted of violent or sexual crimes against women and children.
The inspections will take place across the country on weekdays and weekends. Officials will use electronic tools to monitor those under supervision remotely and will check whether they are following obligations imposed by courts.
Specialist teams will also visit people at home. During those visits, officials will speak with the individuals and their relatives about behavior and possible risks. Specialists will assess what assistance is needed and provide consultations to both those under supervision and their family members.
