Albanian MPs are honored with the title of "Honorary Citizen" somewhere far away
Eight members of the Albanian Parliament have been awarded...

The Democratic Party's Anti-Corruption Spokesperson, Genta Vangjeli, has denounced that the government is seizing private property and endangering the lives of citizens in Kodër Babrru.
Vangjeli said that a weapons dismantling factory will be built on private properties seized by the government.
"The government is seizing private property and endangering the lives of citizens in Kodër Babrru. Citizens in Kodër Babrru, Tirana, expressed that a serious scandal is taking place with the private property of the Dervishi family."
Properties with nos. 173 and 174, recognized by the cadastre as belonging to this family, have been transferred to the Ministry of Defense on behalf of the company "Kayo", without transparency, without public explanation and without respect for the constitutional right to property.
Today, citizens' land is surrounded by gates and guarded by soldiers. Owners are forbidden from entering their property. There are no information boards about the restrictions. There is no public explanation. There is only force, silence and arrogance.
And as if this were not enough, according to the complainants, just 5 meters away from the residences, an ammunition factory and weapons dismantling unit are being built, a highly dangerous activity that, according to safety standards, should be at least 1.5 kilometers away from residential areas - they said.
The information board of the building permit states the object is "construction of a textile factory, two floors above ground". Developer: "Kayo". Entrepreneur: "MSSC Group shpk". These companies are not known for their vision towards textiles, linen or basma, but for the trade of weapons and heavy military ammunition.
If a weapons and dismantling factory will indeed be built there, as residents denounce, then we are dealing with an open public deception and deliberate concealment of the real nature of the project.
The residents have protested. They have also filed a criminal complaint. They have warned that they will pursue the case all the way to the European Court of Human Rights… and they are very right…. This is not a local issue.
This is evidence of a governance model that violates private property, uses security institutions to intimidate citizens, and places dubious interests over the lives of Albanian families.
No one has a mandate to rob citizens' property. No one has the right to turn residential neighborhoods into dangerous industrial zones. No one is above the law. The Democratic Party stands with the citizens and demands a full and transparent investigation, immediate suspension of the works and the restoration of legality.
"If the state does not protect its citizens, citizens will protect themselves with every democratic means given to them by the law. For these reasons and many others, let us all together on February 20th give Edi Rama and his government what they deserve," said the spokesperson for the Anti-Corruption Unit in the Democratic Party, Genta Vangjeli./ CNA
