NATIONAL LEGAL FRAMEWORK CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF CROSS-BORDER INSTRUMENTS TO PERSONS WITH INTELLECTUAL AND/OR PSYCHOSOCIAL DISABILITIES IN LAW AND PRACTICE 17 „As far as the EAW is concerned, when a person is arrested in Lithuania and surrendered to another country on the basis of a EAW, there is a slightly better document on the explanation of rights, it is already written in the second person, and it tells you what you have to do, and what you can do, and it is a bit better, but we still really need to do more work on it and give it more attention, to make sure that it is comprehensible. And the situation is so that it is still difficult to understand, and it is not really accessible.“11 As for the European Arrest Warrants issued by Lithuania, there are cases where the extradition of suspects under the EAW had been refused due to the potential risk of violations related to the conditions of detention.12 Šiauliai Remand Prison is criticised for its poor living conditions and overcrowded cells.

For example, in August 2014, Denmark refused to execute an EAW against a Danish national wanted in Lithuania for rape. In July 2017, the Constitutional Court of Malta ruled that the extradition of a Maltese man to Lithuania, where he is suspected of fraud, would violate his fundamental rights. 11 12
