Žukauskas claims he bombed the event: says 'Nemuno aušra' could have received 130,000 'black money'

Karolis Žukauskas alleges that the political party 'Nemuno aušra' may have received substantial illegal financial contributions and has triggered investigations by releasing recorded conversations with party members.

Karolis Žukauskas, a communication specialist known for deceiving leaders of the political party 'Nemuno aušra' and their representatives, has made serious allegations concerning the financial integrity of the party. He has publicly released new recordings claiming that the party may have been involved in opaque funding practices totaling up to €130,000 in 'black money'. These recordings purportedly capture conversations where he impersonates a party financial assistant, provoking party members to contribute funds in a way that circumvents legal regulations.

In his provocations, Žukauskas introduces himself as Edvardas, an aide to party financier Svetlana Meleško. He pressures potential donors by recalling their prior contributions and prompts them to consider additional donations, suggesting that these would be later reimbursed. Though many individuals requested time to deliberate, one person initially agreed to donate but later retracted, stating their contribution was made willingly, which raises questions about the ethical implications of such fundraising methods employed by the party.

This initiative by Žukauskas, which he describes as an 'experiment', has not only aimed to expose potential misconduct but has also resulted in the harassment of his social media profiles, indicating possible backlash and further ramifications related to his actions against 'Nemuno aušra'. In a politically charged environment, such claims and the subsequent actions could lead to deeper scrutiny of political funding regulations in Lithuania.
