The hearing at the Criminal Court of Kosovo is postponed / Erion Veliaj remains

The Special Court against Corruption and Organized Crime has decided that the next hearing for Erion Veliaj, the mayor of Tirana arrested on 13 charges for 5 serious criminal offenses, will be held on September 15.

Despite the machinations and schemes to endlessly delay the judicial processes, Veliaj will continue to remain in Durrës prison.

The Special Court has suspended the detention terms for Veliaj and has found that the mayor and his defendant lawyer Plarent Ndreca are delaying the trials.

The court has fined defendant lawyer Plarent Ndreca 50,000 lek after finding that they are using schemes and scenarios to indefinitely postpone court hearings.

The mayor, who is facing 13 serious charges, continues with the saga of dragging out legal proceedings by 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.

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.

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./ CNA
