Today the media was filled with the news that Tirana Mayor Erion Veliaj had been taken to the hospital after the news that came out the day before regarding former Health Minister Ilir Beqaj.
CNA actually learned from official sources from the General Directorate of Prisons that the mayor of Tirana was taken to conduct some tests and there were no interventions or problems.
It was simply a routine checkup, for normal health issues.
But, beyond this, we can perhaps read a strategy like the frequent ones we have reported regarding the movements of the mayor of Tirana, with foreign companies, with lobbying, with law firms, the strategies of lawyers, journalists who serve him, the game that is played with public opinion and in particular the criminal attacks that were made against prosecutors and judges during the time that CNA published the wiretaps that you can read here.
The strategy seems to be clear because a routine medical check-up is done and the news breaks: "Erion Veliaj medical check-up."
So, they will say that Erion Veliaj has health problems and cannot be kept in a cell but should stay at home.
Now, the whole issue is how truly professional and honest the doctors will be, because there have been quite a few cases in Albania where doctors have manipulated reports, analyzes, visits, expertise, etc., because if the doctors were to say that Veliaj really has a major health problem, then the lawyers would make a request to the court and the court would normally grant house arrest.
So, today's visit and the explosion of the news in the media make one reasonably suspect that this could be the next move by his lawyers.
Let's hope that Erion Veliaj enjoys complete health because we don't wish health problems on anyone.
He must spend his days in prison in the best possible health and psychological condition to await the indictment, the trial, and to be heard in front of the indictment, because the time has come for Erion Veliaj to defend himself on at least 13 charges, and it is very important that he enjoy full mental health to face justice.
Let's hope that today's medical checkup and the explosion of news were not a tactic by lawyers and that Veliaj enjoys full health./ CNA
