KNAB has paid attention to Burov's valuable wristwatch

The KNAB has started the inspection “in response to the public information and ascertains the circumstances within its competence”, confirmed in the office, noting that the issue of filling in and submitting declarations of officials is within the competence of the State Revenue Service.

The KNAB confirmed that it had received a submission from a private individual drawing the institution’s attention to the alleged violations of the law.

It has already been reported that Guntars Grīnvalds, a candidate for the position of the deputy of the Riga City Council of the party “Sadarba”, was the first to draw public attention to Burov’s clock and the use of the pass in public elections in the Riga City Council.

At the beginning of August, the politician told reporters that Burov, who is no longer the mayor of Riga and an official of the Riga City Council, as well as, according to official information, an official of the company “Rīgas nami”, uses the “Rīgas namu” pass to park his BMW X5. in the parking lot near the Riga Congress House. It would cost about two euros an hour for any other citizen.

Greenwald also said he would ask law enforcement to investigate why Burov had not declared the gold watch he had seen on his hand. According to Greenwald estimates, such watches cost from 8,500 to 25,000 euros. However, none of the declarations submitted by Burov mentions such a purchase or gift.

Earlier, Burovs explained that he had a pass since he was the chairman of the Riga City Council. There have been internal regulations in the Riga City Council that all former chairmen of the Riga City Council have the opportunity to use a parking lot at the Town Hall.

After fulfilling the duties of the chairman of the council, Burovs did not use this opportunity – to use the parking lot of the Town Hall – but used the old “Rīgas namu” pass a couple of times. Burov admits that it is not good and will not use it in the future.

A similar explanation was expressed by the representative of the company “Rīgas nami” Laura Jansone. “Rīgas nami” issues passes for temporary entry of vehicles into the territory near the real estate territory of the Riga Congress House, long-term tenants of the existing premises, service providers, as well as representatives of “Rīgas namu”.

These passes are issued free of charge so that service providers can ensure the availability of services. The issued passes to “Rīgas namiem” do not cause any losses.

“Rīgas nami” vehicles’ temporary entry passes in the specific territory are reviewed once a year. After their evaluation, new ones are issued for the next calendar year or by the deadline set for the respective year. In the near future, the real estate manager will contact Burova to agree on the transfer of the pass to “Rīgas namiem”.

Explaining the situation with a watch, Burov pointed out that it had been presented to him more than ten years ago and had been visible to him all his time.

“It is significant that it has interested Mr. Greenvalt right now, a month before the elections. Although it is not related to the fact that I, as the chairman of the Riga City Council, removed Mr. Greenwald from the position of a member of the board of JSC” Riga Central Market “, and later she I appointed Eva Juhņevičs to the RTAB board instead, “says Burovs.

He emphasized that he was ready to explain and answer for everything that concerned him. According to him, such cases “are obviously part of the pre-election struggle”.
