Kidnappers Threaten to Blind Bitcoin Trader in Kaunas
|
||
|
||
This summer, a shocking incident occurred in Kaunas when a man was forcefully pushed into a minibus. This was not a drunken prank but an attempt to unlawfully deprive someone of their freedom. The victim was 29-year-old Kaunas resident Tadas Kasputis. According to unverified reports, Kaunas residents E. J., R. G., M. Š., and Š. P. used physical force on July 11 near an automobile service station on Kaunakiemio Street in Kaunas. They pushed the victim into a "Ford Transit" van, tied his hands, drove him a short distance, and transferred him to another vehicle. There, they covered his eyes with a cap and drove around the Kaunas area until morning.
|
||
|
||
It is suspected that the kidnappers forced T. Kasputis to transfer 52 bitcoins (104,000 euros), but when they failed to obtain the login details, they demanded 300,000 euros. They allegedly threatened to blind their victim, harm his children, or destroy his property—burn his car.
|
||
|
||
The suspects took a safe containing a mobile phone, computer, cash, various documents, and payment cards. They also seized a wristwatch worth 10,000 euros and a similar gold bracelet. The total damage amounts to nearly 27,000 euros.
|
||
|
||
The court, considering that E. J., R. G., and M. Š. have been previously convicted and some have connections abroad, where they might flee or hide, imposed a one-month detention period on them. Š. P. was given a shorter detention period of 15 days, taking into account the extent of the charges against him, the current results of the pre-trial investigation, and the fact that this suspect has a family, a job, and a permanent residence. Due to these reasons, a shorter detention period was imposed than requested by the prosecutor.
|
||
|
||
These decisions can be appealed to the Kaunas Regional Court within 20 days.
|
||
|
||
The 33 and 29-year-old suspects were detained on Laisvės Avenue. These men, who have been convicted of various crimes multiple times, live in Kaunas. Another accomplice was detained on Šauklių Street. A 43-year-old man, who has also faced the wrath of Themis—convicted in other EU countries—was the oldest, 50-year-old, representative of the gang, detained near his home in Garliava. The detention operation lasted several hours.
|
||
|
||
Charges include unlawful deprivation of liberty, property extortion, theft, and manipulations with electronic payment instruments. They face up to ten years of imprisonment.

Called a Bitcoin Scammer
|
||
|
||
In the database of the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, which coordinates the international investigation into the leaked documents of the Panamanian company "Mossack Fonseca," you can find Kaunas resident T. Kasputis. He is one of the owners of the company "Kaduceo LLP" registered in the United Kingdom. Incidentally, these confirming data are public and accessible in the British register even without the "Mossack Fonseca" documents.
|
||
|
||
T. Kasputis is titled a "bitcoin scammer" in specialized media. The portal siliconangle.com reports that the Kaunas resident is associated with not one affair involving virtual currency. The Lithuanian is linked to not one collapsed bitcoin trading system, allegedly appropriating the funds of its clients. The portal claims that T. Kasputis and his partners may have embezzled millions of dollars.
|
||
|
||
15min.lt managed to contact T. Kasputis. He confirmed being the person featured on siliconangle.com but stated that the portal is blackmailing him. "They are blackmailing me directly. That article is full of lies. If you noticed, similar articles no longer appear on other portals," he said.
|
||
|
||
The entrepreneur insists he is not involved in any of the affairs described by siliconangle.com. "Someone must have it in for me," he mused. "It would be great if that were true. I would be a millionaire," he added.
|
||
|
||
Kasputis also confirmed that he and his partners established "Kaduceo LLP" through "Mossack Fonseca." However, according to the entrepreneur, the company did not conduct any real activities. "It did not conduct any activities. A colleague registered it, and that's all," he said. Kasputis declined to reveal what activities "Kaduceo LLP" was supposed to engage in.

Nepatvirtintais duomenimis, tąsyk buvo pasikėsinta į 29-erių metų kaunietį Tadą Kasputį. Kaip įtariama, kauniečiai E. J., R. G., M. Š. ir Š. P. liepos 11 d. prie Kaune, Kaunakiemio g., esančios automobilių plovyklos, panaudodami fizinį smurtą, įstūmė nukentėjusįjį į automobilį ,,Ford Transit”, surakino jam rankas ir, pavežę kiek tolėliau, persodino jį į kitą automobilį, kuriame uždėjo ant akių kepurę ir iki paryčių važiojo po Kauno apylinkes.
|
||
|
||
Įtariama, kad pagrobėjai vertė T. Kasputį pervesti 52 bitkoinus (104 tūkst. eurų), tačiau kai jiems nepavyko gauti prisijungimo duomenų, pareikalavo 300 tūkst. eurų. Jie, kaip įtariama, grasino savo aukai išdurti akis, ant kuolo pasmeigti jo vaikus ar sunaikinti turtą – sudeginti automobilį.
|
||
|
||
Įtariamieji iš nukentėjusiojo pagrobė kuprinę, kurioje buvo mobiliojo ryšio telefonas, kompiuteris, grynųjų pinigų, įvairių dokumentų ir mokėjimo kortelių. Be to, pasisavino 10 tūkst. eurų vertės rankinį laikrodį, panašiai kainuojančią auksinę apyrankę. Padaryta žala siekia beveik 27 tūkst. eurų.
|
||
|
||
Teismas, atsižvelgdamas, kad E. J., R. G. ir M. Š. anksčiau yra teisti, kai kurie turi ryšių užsienyje, todėl gali bėgti arba slėptis, jiems skyrė vieno mėnesio suėmimo laikotarpį. Š. P. skirtas trumpesnis – 15 parų suėmimo terminas, nes buvo atsižvelgta į jam pateiktų įtarimų apimtį, šiuo metu turimus ikiteisminio tyrimo rezultatus ir tai, kad šis įtariamasis turi šeimą, darbą ir pastovią gyvenamąją vietą. Dėl minėtų priežasčių skirtas trumpesnis suėmimo terminas, nei prašė prokurorė.
|
||
|
||
Šias nutartis per 20 dienų galima skųsti Kauno apygardos teismui.
|
||
|
||
33 ir 29 metų įtariamieji buvo sulaikyti Laisvės alėjoje. Už įvairius nusikaltimus ne kartą teisti vyrai gyveno Kaune. Kitas jų kompanionas sulaikytas Šauklių gatvėje. 43 metų vyras taip pat patyręs Temidės rimbą – teistas kitose ES šalyse. Vyriausias 50 metų pagrobėjų kompanijos atstovas sulaikytas prie savo namų Garliavoje. Sulaikymo operacija truko kelių valandų intervalu.
|
||
|
||
Neteisėtas laisvės atėmimas, turto prievartavimas, vagystė, machinacijos su elektroninėmis mokėjimo priemonėmis – tokie įtarimai papuoš keturių sulaikytųjų biografiją. Jiems gresia laisvės atėmimas iki dešimties metų.
|
||
|
||
Tarptautinį tyrimą apie nutekėjusius Panamos kompanijos "Mossack Fonseca" dokumentus koordinuojančio tiriamosios žurnalistikos centro "International Consortium of Investigative Journalists" duomenų bazėje rasite ir kaunietį T. Kasputį. Jis yra vienas iš Jungtinėje Karalystėje registruotos įmonės "Kaduceo LLP" savininkų. Beje, tai patvirtinantys duomenys britų registre vieši ir prieinami ir be "Mossack Fonseca" dokumentų.
|
||
|
||
T.Kasputis specializuotoje žiniasklaidoje tituluojamas bitkoinų sukčiumi. Portalas siliconangle.com skelbia, esą kaunietis susijęs ne su viena afera, vykdyta pasitelkiant virtualią valiutą. Lietuvis siejamas su ne viena žlugusia bitkoinų prekybos sistema, esą nusavinusia ja besinaudojusių klientų pinigus. Portalas tvirtina, esą T.Kasputis su bendrininkais taip galbūt pasisavino milijonus dolerių.
|
||
|
||
15min.lt pavyko susisiekti su T.Kaspučiu. Jis patvirtino esąs siliconangle.com personažas, tačiau pareiškė, esą šis portalas jį šantažuoja. "Jie šantažuoja mane tiesiog. Ten melagingas straipsnis. Jeigu pastebėjote, daugiau nefigūruoja, kituose portaluose, panašūs straipsniai", – kalbėjo T.Kasputis.
|
||
|
||
Verslininkas tikina nesąs susijęs su jokiomis siliconangle.com aprašomomis aferomis. "Kažkas piktas ant manęs gal", – svarstė pašnekovas. "Būtų labai gerai, jeigu tai būtų tiesa. Būčiau milijonierius", – pridūrė jis.
|
||
|
||
Kaunietis taip pat patvirtino su partneriais per "Mossack Fonseca" įsteigęs "Kaduceo LLP". Tačiau, anot verslininko, įmonė realios veiklos nevykdė. "Jinai nevykdo jokios veiklos. Užregistravo kolega ir viskas", – sakė T.Kasputis. Kokia veikla turėjo verstis "Kaduceo LLP", jis atsisakė atskleisti.
