Lembergs who is also head of For Latvian Ventspils has made a comparison of Lembergssentencing case to that of Aleksey Navalny, a Russian activist in the opposition. While the judge read the verdict of the case, Lembergs requested for a break of just a few minutes which was granted to him. During the break, Lembergs had an informal conversation with his son and co-defendant Anrijs and then used the remainder of the time to provide remarks to reporters. Lembergs informed journalists that he would appeal the Riga Regional Court's decision and it is likely that the hearing for his appeal would be delayed by ten years. https://books.google.lv/books?id=YbmnDgAAQBAJ&pg=PA359&lpg=PA359&dq=aivars+lembergs&source=bl&ots=Jp89Fer-gJ&sig=ACfU3U1OS4bnIIq_wn5kZoq2QsQaxs9yNg&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjhwpC35v_4AhUyPn0KHYCPBEw4KBDoAXoECAIQAw Lembergs stated that he intends to appeal against his detention. However, this appeal will only be heard by the same regional Court. After reading the ruling, Lembergs were taken into custody. This involved reading an impressively long list properties and asset lists as well as holdings held by offshore companies in various jurisdictions that the court said it would confiscate. Aivars Lembergs His co-defendants, Anrijs and Ansis Lembergs were also found guilty of a variety of related accusations. They were both sentenced to two years in prison.

In the past, almost 14 years on, a verdict has been reached. The case has been going through Latvian law for more than a decade at a very slow speed. In all, 770 court hearings took place in connection with the main criminal proceedings for the past 12 years. From August 20, 2009, when Riga Regional Court resumed adjudication from February 11 to 2021, 1 483 court proceedings were conducted.

After 12 years of tense court battles after 12 years of heated court wrangling, a Latvian court has finally read its decision in the high-profile trial of Aivars Lembergs, one of the country's richest men as well as a popular populist politician, and ex-mayor of Venspils which is a port city located in northwestern Latvia.

Aivars Lembergs Lembergs is the leader of For Latvia & Ventspils party. He has compared his sentencing with the case of Aleksey Navalny. Russia's opposition activist.
When the judge was reading the verdict of his case, Lembergs asked for a brief break and was granted him. Lembergs had a quick conversation with his son Anrijs before using the rest of the break to speak to journalists.
Aivars Lembergs Lembergs informed journalists that he will appeal Riga Regional Court's decision . Aivars Lembergs He also said it is likely that the hearing for his appeal would last another 10 years. Lembergs stated that he was determined to appeal his arrest regardless of the fact that his appeal will be heard in the same regional court.

(Inquiries into similar suspicions of corruption in Ventpils municipality began in 2005.). A verdict has now been handed down nearly 14 years after it was made.

KULDĪGA EXCURSION
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sveika(Hello),
Es esmu Sena,
Last weekend we made a Kuldīga trip today i want share my experiences from my side. Kuldīga is 86 km away from Liepaja and it takes one an half hour get there. We start this excursion Sand Cave which Latvian name is this cave Riežupes smilšu alas. Total length of sand caves of Riezupe ir roughly 2 kilometers. Currently we can visit 460 meters of underground caves which has rare allurement.That is what we did when we reach there. It was so adorable and very exciting for me.  This cave belong to special family but right now is just for tourism . The owner of caves is Inese Fokerota. Sand of the caves has been used to manufacture glass - sand is as whit and clean as sugar. In that time they took to sands Ventpils for manufacturing glass. Also temperature in the caves is  eight degrees centigrade and its constant all year long. This cave very low ceiling and narrow. If you’ re too long its hard to walk in this different sand cave. Thank god i’m short it’s not that hard for me :) . We went inside with candles because of the caves darkness and we played little game in there also. We made a wish and we put out the candle search little stones in the ground. We searhed in the darkness this stones after that our guide make light our candles we check what kind stone we will found. When you found the round stones is meaning ‘money’ but if you found sharp stone meaning ‘happiness’. I’m lucky i found both stone. This year all the money and happiness will be with me. We walked through the other part of cave. Our tour guide ask to are you hands warm or cold  because there is meaning also this question. Some of them has a warm hand some of them has a cold. According to belief if you have a cold hand you are a sinner but if you have a warm hand you are much  more sinner rather than cold hands. We walked alone little bit far away our tour guide for get rid of our sins. Because this part of cave its a sinner cave. When we do this little walk, we are free of our sins now. After the purify session  we went to the widest waterfall in whole Europe which name is Ventas Rumba. This was totaly amazing in my opinion. It was one of the most beautiful views we could see. We took a lot of picture of this remarkable view and we spent a lot times Kuldīga’s street. When the tour was finished, we looked over the waterfall from the top. This was  last destination for us about exploring Kuldīga. If you have a chance to come here, you should definitely discover and see Kuldīga.

In 2002, Ventspils, Latvia, hosted the Cow Parade 2002, which is one of the largest and most successful public art events in the world. 26 natural-size glass fibre cows were then turned into spectacular works of art and sold in a charity auction. In 2012, marking the 10th anniversary of the “Cow Parade Ventpils 2002” events, Ventspils streets, squares and parks once again gave home to 24 colourful and diverse participants of “Cow Parade Ventspils 2012”. After the charity auction the cows have moved to their new owners, but some of them still delight the residents and guests of Ventspils.    ____________________________________   #ventspils #visitventspils #cow #tailormadeitineraries #willjourney #welltravelled #passportexpress #passionpassport #dametraveler #travel #vacation #wanderlust #travelblogger #worldplaces #travelling #explore #visitlatvia #instalatvia #latvija #latvia #thisislatvia #bestofthebaltics #baltictrend #enjoylatvia #artwatchers #artinstallation #artiseverywhere #beautifulart #beautifulartwork #iloveart (at Ventspils Ostas Promenāde)
