MP Juris Boldāns, the former head of the administration of Kubuli Parish elected from TB/LNNK, was sentenced by the Latgale Regional Court to 8 months imprisonment for election fraud in October 2007, along with four members of the local election committee and his son. He also resigned from the party, but said he was not guilty.
After an appeal from Boldāns, the sentence was reduced to 6 months, but the ban on participating in national and local elections for 2 years was upheld. After serving his sentence, he was released in April 2008, after which his mandate was shortly restored, although he has submitted a cassation appeal to the Supreme Court.
