Yes. Criminal proceedings (No. 03-2-00365-23) have been initiated by the Kaunas District Prosecutor’s Office. The case is currently under judicial consideration, and the final legal assessment of all evidence belongs exclusively to the court.

Mr. Victor Redko does not admit guilt. It is his position that: · no criminal offence has been committed · no intentional violation of EU sanctions has occurred · no deliberate participation in prohibited economic activity has taken place The indictment does not establish criminal intent or provide direct evidence of unlawful conduct.

The allegations relate to interpretations of transactions and supply chains. However: · the materials referenced do not demonstrate intentional sanctions evasion · no direct evidence of prohibited exports has been established · no confirmed violations have been determined by a court Any legal conclusions remain subject to judicial review.

The equipment referenced is classified under: CN (Combined Nomenclature) code 8421.21.00, “filtering or purifying machinery and apparatus for liquids – for water”. This equipment: · is designed for water treatment · is widely used in industrial and municipal systems · is not oil-refining or petrochemical equipment · is not classified as dual-use goods under Regulation (EU) 2021/821 Importantly: This CN code is not listed in the annexes of Regulation (EU) No 833/2014, which defines export restrictions.

No general export ban applies to this category of equipment. Under EU sanctions legislation: · restrictions apply only to specifically listed goods · liability arises only if prohibited goods are exported or sanctions are intentionally circumvented

Yes. Contracts mentioned in the proceedings were concluded prior to 24 February 2022, at a time when such activities were lawful. EU sanctions regimes generally do not apply retroactively unless explicitly stated.

Operational and logistical processes were carried out by: · company staff · external logistics providers · customs intermediaries Mr. Victor Redko did not personally: · organise transportation · prepare customs declarations · control export execution All goods were formally declared using applicable customs classifications.

Yes. All goods were: · declared under correct CN codes · supported by standard documentation · processed through formal customs procedures No confirmed misdeclaration has been established.

No. The international structure of the Jurby group: · has existed for many years · has been openly registered · operated transparently Corporate structuring itself does not constitute evidence of unlawful activity.

Certain precautionary measures were implemented during the investigation, including: · temporary account restrictions · operational limitations · extended compliance checks Such measures are standard within investigative procedures and do not imply guilt.

The case is ongoing. No final court decision has been issued. Under fundamental legal principles: The presumption of innocence fully applies.

Stakeholders are encouraged to rely on: · formal legal outcomes · applicable EU regulations · documented compliance facts rather than assumptions or interpretations not confirmed by court findings.
