The elections are heading into their final weeks and it is expected that the battle between candidates, especially those on open lists, will deepen.
Beyond intra-party clashes and debates with the opposition, there are also MPs who are trafficking their votes, taking advantage of the relationships they have in different districts.
One of the most classic cases is that of MP Vullnet Sinaj, who once declared that he would leave politics, then has now entered the race and CNA has been able to investigate and discover strong connections as to how Vullnet Sinaj, through various structures, businesses at his disposal, but also direct relations, as CNA has reported, with the mayor of Tirana, Erion Veliaj, who is in Durrës prison, is attempting to exchange votes .
In Tirana, Vullnet Sinaj has given guidance on voting for Fatmir Xhafaj, the deputy who emerged from the directors of the "5D" dossier . That is, from the Municipality of Tirana, with the support of Erion Veliaj, in 2021.
Now in 2025, Xhafaj has found another scheme. He directs his people to Vlora, vote for Vullnet Sinaj, and Vullnet Sinaj in turn gives votes to Fatmir Xhafaj in Tirana.
It seems like a simple political game between two colleagues, but in fact it is not. CNA has been able to investigate that a strong battle is being waged from Durrës prison to orient the vote, so Erion Veliaj is involved in a political action .
Also, the deputy of the directors of the "5D" file, Fatmir Xhafaj, is not only on the open list in Tirana, but he asked to use his influence to "traffick" votes in different districts, including candidates from the Socialist Party , "I give you my 5 or 10 votes that I have in Pogradec, Vlora or elsewhere and you give them to me in Tirana."
The same scheme is being used with Vullnet Sinaj, where not only Fatmir Xhafaj, but also his family members, are seeking votes for Vullnet Sinaj in Vlora , with the return of the vote, by voting for Xhafaj's people for Vullnet in Vlora. Vullnet's people, including business structures, etc., vote for Fatmir Xhafaj .
The scheme is clear and as CNA reported, Erion Veliaj's "Latifi" is seeking to be elected MP by bargaining and trafficking votes, from one district to another .
Although months ago he declared that he would retire from politics, now he has not only entered the list, but is returning to Erion Veliaj's "Latif", in a collaboration that is not only through Fatmir Xhafaj, but also through Erion Veliaj's brother, Arbër Veliaj.
The latter is the man who distributes money to the media for the socialist MP and through advertisements, as CNA has often said, politics captures the media and uses it for its propaganda.
CNA will bring other details and facts about how certain people are involved in this campaign, family members, relatives of Fatmir Xhafaj, individuals with a criminal past, who seek votes in Vlora on behalf of Vullnet Sinaj, and the latter then returns the respect and honor of the vote he receives in Vlora, by voting for Fatmir Xhafaj in Tirana.
The union of the two candidates is Erion Veliaj, who is in Durrës prison, but also a scheme, which beyond the fact that it seems interesting is a scandal within the socialists because it shows a great division and a fierce battle within the type, creating intrigues, backstabbing and schemes or scenarios to hit one colleague or another, including attacks on the media that are paid for by Vullnet Sinaj or were paid for by the incinerators, from the "5D" file and so on./ CNA
