Beqaj does not come out of the glass box/ Here is the truth of the court

Today, the GJKKO has issued a decision regarding the former Minister of Health, Ilir Beqaj, that he should sit with his lawyer during the court session against him. The government media, paid for by money from incinerators, scandals, affairs, the 5D file and paid for by the advertisements of the brother of the mayor of Tirana, Arbër Veliaj, have advertised that there is a decision, the cage has been removed. Propaganda as always: the hair is taken and the beam is made.

In fact, the truth is quite different. Ilir Beqaj has two cases in the Criminal Court of Kosovo, and the case on which this court has decided today has only a security measure of "Compulsory appearance". While the measure of "Arrest in prison" is for another case.

To simplify: Ilir Beqaj has two cases in the GJKKO. One is with a simple security measure, ie an obligation to appear. The other is with a security measure of arrest in prison. For the case which is with an obligation to appear, which does not have many witnesses and does not pose a risk, there are no problems. The court, given that the arrest measure was not issued by this judicial body for this case, but by another judicial body for another case, has decided to go outside the glass box.

So, beyond the claims that the glass box or cage, as they call it, was removed, and what is said in the government's propaganda media, the truth is that Ilir Beqaj will remain outside the cage in the "Sterilization" issue. Because for this issue there is a security measure "Compulsory appearance".

As for the other issue, the abuse of SASPAC funds, for which there is a security measure of imprisonment, it will remain inside the glass box.

This is the decision of the GJKKO. There is no removal of the glass box and not everyone will come out of the glass box. It is simply and only a propaganda lie. For a case with a low security measure, one does not go to the glass box. As is the case of the defendant Plarent Ndreca, for example, when he goes to the GJKKO he stays outside, he does not stay in the glass box because he is not arrested, he is being prosecuted at large.

Or dozens of other people who are being tried and are accused, stand outside the glass box. People arrested, because they have other elements of security or danger or issues for which they were arrested, stand in the glass box. People who are being pursued in a free state or with mild security measures, stand outside the glass box. This is also the case of Ilir Beqaj, nothing more than that. /CNA
