The Constitutional Court is more than a hostage to Sadushi, it is a hostage to the incompetence of its own members.

Constitutional Court

The President of the Republic, Bajram Begaj, has not announced a date for the swearing-in of the newest member of the Constitutional Court. Following the procedures followed by the Supreme Court, Supreme Court member Asim Vokshi was declared the winner.

Asim Vokshi, currently a member of the Supreme Court, received fewer votes from his Supreme Court colleagues than Naureda Llagami.

So, the Supreme Court panel chose Naureda Llagami and not Asim Vokshi.

But the Supreme Court at the end of the evaluation elected Asim Vokshi as a member of the Constitutional Court, even though he received fewer votes than his rival in the race Naureda Llagami. To overcome this obstacle, Sokol Sadushi was helped by the scoring made by the Judicial Appointments Council, whose chairman is again Sokol Sadushi.

The completion of the procedures remains in the hands of President Begaj, as the oath must be taken by the President.

Asim Vokshi would then replace Holta Zaçe's vacant seat, paving the way for the elections of the new President of the Constitutional Court.

But Llagami, who according to Sadushi received 8 votes (at a time when 9 were needed to be nominated), has put the Administrative Court in motion and is aiming for a seat in the Constitutional Court, as she claims that a vote was deliberately declared invalid to change the result.

That is, Sokol Sadushi, after scoring more points for Asim Vokshi in the KED, ruled that one vote of a member of the Supreme Court for Naureda Llagami was invalid. Thus, out of 9, Llagami gets 8 votes. And Asim Vokshi is declared the winner.

Thicker than that, what does it take to understand it?

Llagami has appealed Sadushi's decision, requesting the Administrative Court to suspend the process until the merits of her lawsuit are reviewed. Sokol Sadushi himself came out publicly in this conflict a day ago, speaking on behalf of the Supreme Court as the appointing body, opposing this appeal process.

With unprecedented behavior and language, Sokol Sadushi is publicly exerting pressure on the Administrative Court. Sadushi is publicly asking the Administrative Court to declare its lack of jurisdiction to review this matter.

For Sokol Sadushi, the review of the case by the Administrative Court would be "an attempt at unprecedented and potentially dangerous jurisdictional intervention for the constitutional order."

The Constitutional Court is more than a hostage to Sadushi, it is a hostage to

Which body of the Supreme Court consulted the text published by Sadushi in the media as "the position of the Supreme Court"?

Sadducees speak on behalf of the principle of separation of powers?

What power is he talking about? The power that declares from top to bottom with the text "no one can change my decisions"?

The judicial debate in the Administrative Court will take place on Monday, October 13. Why did Sokol Sadushi need this public pressure on October 10?

While Sadushi behaves like the pasha of the system and like the God who divides the fates of judicial careers, another trial is expected on October 16 at the Constitutional Court.

Since March 2025, President Begaj has asked the Constitutional Court to clarify the situation regarding how the scheme for renewing judges every 3 years will be implemented.

The President has a legitimate interest in this exhaustive determination, as he is the nominating body for 3 members.

According to Sadushi, the President should have opened the call for the election of the successor to member Sonila Bejtja at the end of 2024. Because Sadushi knows the deadlines and he knows when and how vacancies arise on the Constitutional Court! So everyone should wait for Sadushi to speak. And when he says a place has opened, others say: let's find someone who deserves it.

The President, after the uproar raised by Sadushi about a year ago, requested from the Constitutional Court the exhaustive determination of all existing mandate terms. Not one by one, when the Pasha of the Supreme Court would decide.

"The President of the Republic hopes that the Constitutional Court will be able to fully and definitively clarify how the partial renewal of the Court should be, so that it is considered in accordance with the Constitution.

"The Constitutional Court must make this clarification in such a way that it is valid for all current constitutional judges, otherwise there will be no possibility of correcting the deformation of the renewal mechanism and any intervention to shorten certain mandates, only for one or a few judges, would be in clear violation of the Constitution," Begaj's request states.

While Sadushi feeds on the distortion that the President speaks of, the institutions of the denominations should be clear about these deadlines themselves and primarily. And not leave Sadushi the heavy burden of calculating deadlines case by case.

The delay in the swearing-in session of Asim Vokshi as the new member of the Constitutional Court seems to be related to this issue.

The appointment of a new member should be done as part of an entire process without violating the scheme of renewing judges every 3 years as provided for in the Constitution.

The Constitutional Court has been shelved the President's request for more than 6 months, which took them less than half an hour to respond to.

The delay shows that not even the members of the Constitutional Court themselves know when their mandates end? Let them ask Sadushi! But let them all ask the question at the same time. Not one by one, when Sadushi has found their replacements.

They can find so much dignity!

They should have found it months ago, in fact, and not made things worse like they did.
