The late officer's widow, Liudvika Pociuniene, had appealed to a superior prosecutor the Prosecutor General's Office to reopen the investigation. It was the third time Pociuniene called for reopening the investigation.
Chief Prosecutor of the Pretrial Investigation Control Division Zenonas Burokas summed up the previous ruling with consideration to arguments put forth by Pociuniene and decided to dismiss her appeal, the Prosecutor General's Office reported.
In November 2006, Lithuanian prosecutors found that the death of Pociunas during a working trip to Brest on Aug. 23 2006, was an accident and called off an underway pretrial investigation. A later investigation confirmed the conclusion.
