The house collapses due to the earthquake, they earn from the reconstruction/

Arjan Seferi says that together with his mother and sister they had an apartment on "Myslym Keta" street in Tirana.

The building collapsed after the earthquake damage and the procedure for rent bonus and new apartment was followed on behalf of the mother.

" One of the three of us had to apply to get the house. My mother was in good health and neither my sister nor I could get out in front of my mother. Mom, that means we won," said the whistleblower.

Unfortunately, in August 2022, the mother passed away and the children handed over the inheritance hatch.

But in March 2023, the rent bonus was removed and they were disqualified from the apartment benefit, since their mother was the only one on the family certificate.

"I opened the inheritance and handed it over to the municipal unit. On March 3 of this year, the lot was drawn to get a house. I was disqualified because my mother passed away. They didn't call it either the inheritance deed or the ownership certificate, which is me, my sister and my mother, and they took me out on the highway. We all lived in one house. They asked me if I have another apartment, I went to the Land Registry and found out that I don't have any other property. The reason is here that in the family certificate we were single, separate certificate. This was the answer that the mother lived alone. This was the answer that the deceased was alone, there was no one and this is my disqualification ", said the informant.

Lawyer Klaudi Zhuli sees the action taken by the Legal Department of the Municipality as a mistake, since the deceased lady won the apartment by decision of the municipal council and cannot be disqualified for having passed away. The deceased has heirs, who were also co-owners in the collapsed apartment.

"The actions taken by the Municipality of Tirana, by the Legal Department are actions taken in misinterpretation of the law, the normative act and all the acts derived from this normative act, since the heirs of the deceased cannot be excluded from the benefit of the apartment. He passed away in 2022, it does not take away his right to ownership. This ownership right that she has over the apartment that she won based on the decision of the Municipal Council passes to her legal heirs where her heirs were co-owners in the apartment that was destroyed as a result of the 2019 earthquake. Under these conditions, the legal directorate does not can read the template normative act as it is, but must make a correct and proper interpretation as the reality is", said the lawyer./tvklan
