Attacks on justice and delays in trials / Today, the hearing at the GJKKO for

Today, a hearing is being held at the Criminal Court for the arrested mayor of Tirana, Erion Veliaj, on 13 charges for 5 serious criminal offenses.

The arrested mayor of Tirana, Erion Veliaj, continues to delay trials using every possible scheme and machination.

13 charges for 5 serious offenses, 9 counts of corruption, abuse of office, laundering of proceeds of crime, concealment of assets, and bringing prohibited items into the cell weigh heavily on Mayor Erion Veliaj.

Over 60,000 pages of evidence supporting the accusations against the mayor who used his position to enrich himself and his family.

During this period, Veliaj has used every kind of machination, from changing lawyers to attacks or lawsuits against prosecutors and their decisions in various courts, to drag out the trials.

From the dungeon of Durrës prison, he continues to attack through his media the prosecutors and judges who have dealt with his case.

The attacks reach as far as the US, with reports filled with fraud and lobbying law firms being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to submit these reports filled with lies exposed one after another.

With various sponsored articles in foreign media by third parties expressing reservations about justice in Albania.

With scenarios of changing lawyers, only to end up being defended by a lawyer who was accused by SPAK, like Plarent Ndreca.

All of Veliaj's squirms against justice show that he is a coward, that he is not man enough to go to court to face the facts and evidence that prosecutors have found on which the 13 serious charges have been filed./ CNA
