A group of singers and presenters have come out in defense of Mayor Erion Veliaj, the latter arrested on suspicion of corruption and money laundering.

Many of them brazenly came out in front of SPAK protesting for Veliaj, who seems to have rewarded them quite well with money.

One of the television personalities who reacted and came out in support of Erion Veliaj was moderator Ardit Gjebrea.

"No one can say that Tirana is the same as before. And unfortunately, how can they not shout about your work and how quickly they forgot (on purpose) that you came to Tirana to fundamentally change it for the better of our daily lives? One day they will look for you, and I know: The capable always find a way to be worthy of themselves and their family. I am happy and proud to have a friend like you!", writes the presenter, accompanying the message with a photo with Veliaj and the hashtags #jamerion and #kambesimtekti, "Gjebrea wrote on social networks.
