The saga of trial delays by Veliaj/ What will be the alibi for today's

The next hearing is scheduled for today at the Special Court against Corruption and Organized Crime against the mayor, Erion Veliaj, who was arrested on 13 charges for 5 serious criminal offenses.

For about a year, the mayor, who is facing 13 serious charges, has continued with the saga of dragging out legal proceedings, using various strategies, starting from illnesses, accidents, files, the glass cage, etc., as he is afraid to face the facts and evidence, and therefore avoids justice and delays the process.

Veliaj's defense strategy has been diverse and systematic with endless schemes and scenarios, but in fact they show that dragging out the process is a strategy, perhaps out of fear, since Veliaj and his lawyers know well what evidence they have in the file.

9 charges of corruption, abuse of office, laundering the proceeds of crime, concealing assets, and bringing prohibited items into the cell are the charges against Veliaj.

Over 60,000 pages of facts and evidence have been sent to court, which Erion Veliaj is clearly afraid to face, given the schemes and scenarios he uses.

The arrested mayor of Tirana has been using various excuses for a year to avoid attending GJKKO hearings, while on the other hand, he has been carrying out an aggressive attack on the judiciary, SPAK, prosecutors and judges with his media soldiers for a long time.

Hundreds of thousands of dollars are paid by his brother for anti-justice reports, dozens of paid articles are written against justice by international media.

All parallel to his court proceedings. What has happened is that every time Veliaj has had a court hearing, articles against SPAK, prosecutors and judges are published in his media, in international media.

Meanwhile, for a year now, Veliaj has been following the schemes: removing a lawyer, appointing a lawyer, lawyers getting sick, and many other pretexts just to prevent the judicial process from developing normally.

The question that arises is what will be Veliaj's next alibi to postpone today's session at the GJKKO?/ CNA
