Danielita is best known for publishing a newspaper in Širvintos district, but the political Pinskai family’s company also received large payments from a business controlled by retail giant Maxima LT.

The payments were described by Danielita’s former financial officer, while Maxima representatives confirmed that money had indeed been transferred. They said Biruliškių gama selected the family-owned company to prepare a detailed plan for a major logistics center in Širvintos district.

Sources said the work was linked to plans for a huge logistics facility and that Danielita received substantial sums. Yet the project did not move forward: the planned work never began.
