Found a 'hole' in the CSDD system and ended up in court: Rinkevics pardoned the inventor

According to bb.lv, citing the president's advisor, Rinkevics made the decision to grant clemency on September 15.

The president reviewed the court decisions in the case and, as his advisor emphasized, does not question their legality. However, in making his decision, Rinkevics took into account the importance of the security of state information systems, the obligation of state institutions to promptly address vulnerabilities, and the public interest in ensuring that people report discovered cybersecurity issues in good faith.

In the president's assessment, the benefit to society from Skuruls' actions was significantly greater than the severity of the offense he committed.

Based on Article 45 of the Constitution and the Law on Clemency, Rinkevics released Skuruls from serving the main punishment and lifted his conviction.
