Gintaras Čekanauskas is a former judge who was recently found guilty of influence peddling by a court in Lithuania. He was implicated in a corruption case involving high-ranking judges and lawyers, where he promised to sway a colleague's decision in favor of a defendant in exchange for a bribe. The court sentenced him to pay a fine of €19,400, while another individual involved in the case received a prison sentence. This verdict comes after a prior ruling where Čekanauskas was acquitted, which was later overturned on appeal, leading to the current retrial.
