It may seem unbelievable or ridiculous, but Tirana Mayor Erion Veliaj, who is in prison for 13 serious criminal charges, is dragging the institution, where he has committed a series of criminal offenses, for which he has been investigated by SPAK and is in court.

Official sources told CNA that the lawsuit filed in the Administrative Court against prosecutor Ols Dado includes the Municipality of Tirana.

According to data provided by CNA, but also reported in other media, the Administrative Court has returned the lawsuit to Mayor Veliaj and the Municipality of Tirana for additional documentation.

According to the data provided, it is confirmed that the Municipality of Tirana is involved in the lawsuit. What business does the Municipality of Tirana have that leads a prosecutor to an administrative lawsuit?

Secondly, the current head of the Municipality of Tirana is Anuela Ristani, who is delegated with a signature and a seal.

Meanwhile, a lawsuit is filed in an administrative court and the name of the Municipality of Tirana is used again.

Erion Veliaj does not have the right to use the seal of the Municipality of Tirana, as long as this institution is led by Anuela Ristani, who has taken over as Mayor and uses the seal.

How can Erion Veliaj from prison use the seal when he is not the acting chairman, but has delegated his position?

And for this reason, the Administrative Court has returned the administrative process that Mayor Veliaj opened for completion. He did it himself, the municipality did it, are they his games or someone else's, the truth is very simple.

Will the Municipality of Tirana and Anuela Ristani hand over the seal to Erion Veliaj in Durrës prison? Or will they continue to implement the law, as they have assumed the task. It is very simple.

No one can sign a lawsuit on behalf of the Municipality of Tirana, not even Erion Veliaj himself at the moment he has delegated the duty as mayor. At the moment he delegates the duty, the responsible person who has undertaken its implementation is the one who uses the seal and signature.

Now, it is very simple for Erion Veliaj to file the lawsuits from prison and use Anuela Ristani's seal and signature. Or in any other municipality, when the task is delegated, every delegated official should start signing and sealing lawsuits that they probably have no knowledge of at all. But this belongs to another investigation.

It is now clear. The schemes continue and Erion Veliaj from Durrës prison orders the lawsuit and puts the name of the institution on it, while sending it without a seal. It includes the institution, but in fact, what connection does a municipality and a ministry have with a certain prosecutor who has investigated, or with some of them.

This is only in the sick minds of the tactics of corrupt persons who want to evade justice and with procedures and technicalities, instead of going and proving their innocence, they find instruments to create confusion, chaos.
