VRK: TV series contained hidden advertizing of LVŽS, its leader

The Central Electoral Commission (VRK) ruled on Tuesday that episodes when Karbauskis invited viewers to visit Naisiai, a settlement in Šiauliai District, northern Lithuaniam as well as the episodes featuring the LVŽS’s party newspaper and a calendar with the LVŽS logo were political advertizing.

Agrokoncernas said it transferred almost 332,000 euros to Videometra, a production company, for filming Naisių Vasara but Videometra refused to disclose its other sponsors.
