In November 2025, law enforcement in Klaipėda, Lithuania, initiated a pre-trial investigation after receiving information about a suspicious package suspected of containing drugs, shipped from abroad. During this investigation, officers apprehended a minor who is a student at one of the city's educational institutions. The minor was found carrying a package that was believed to contain narcotic substances.

Following the arrest, the minor was charged with illegal possession of these substances without intent to distribute, as well as smuggling them into the Republic of Lithuania. A preventive measure imposed on the accused is a written commitment not to leave the jurisdiction. The legal repercussions for such offenses in Lithuania can include community service, fines, restrictions on freedom, arrest, or imprisonment for up to two years.

The case raises concerns about the growing issues of drug smuggling and the involvement of minors in such activities, indicating a need for enhanced monitoring and preventive measures in educational institutions. This incident highlights the continuing challenges of drug trafficking in Lithuania, as well as the legal system's responses aimed at curbing substance abuse and trafficking among the youth.
