Vice minister charged with civil security was in Chile and unaware of the Alytus fire for a week

After the fire in Alytus, the Seimas National Security and Defence Committee (NSGK) went into review of the civil security system’s flaws. The Fire and Rescue Department (PAGD) explained that the fire was not viewed as being of the highest category because the Ekologistika building was not included on the list of dangerous objects. Meanwhile, the vice minister in charge of civil security knew nothing of the fire for a week, being on a work trip.
