Who do Veliaj's lawyers (especially the English ones) work for?

Who do Veliaj's lawyers (especially the English ones) work for?

From news repeaters who read it on portals, trumpets are still heard about the need for Veliaj's presence and absence at the Municipal Council meeting, which after officially noting his absence for more than 3 months, decided to propose to the Council of Ministers the dismissal of Veliaj.

There is no hearing for a dismissal procedure initiated due to failure to report to duty for 3 consecutive months.

The Council, in this case, has the duty to simply ascertain the fact.

The reasons don't matter as long as the law doesn't provide "facilities" for "excused absences".

While all the DP representatives in the debates explain that Veliaj should have been dismissed, they are absurdly giving arguments in defense of Veliaj when they say that he should have gone to the municipality to be heard.

But why would they listen to it?

The law says 3 months of absence!

What would they hear? What is different about the reasons Veliaj may have had? Did the opposition in the Municipal Council have in mind any option that would excuse him for his more than 3-month absence from duty?

Depending on the reason, they would see how they would vote?

Opposition talents forget that if Veliaj entered the municipality, he could not be dismissed! Because the moment Veliaj entered the municipality, he had practically gone to work!

We cannot know why Veliaj did not request permission from the prosecutor's office to attend the meeting.

Because maybe he could have gotten the permit! Today we can no longer know how that request would have turned out. But we assume that if Veliaj had entered the municipality, the councilors would not have been able to dismiss him after that.

Then Veliaj could simply say "let's talk again in 3 months".

On the other hand, the same lawyers who did not advise Veliaj to formalize the request for permission at the prosecutor's office to attend the Municipal Council meeting have convinced their client that they will appeal the government's decision to the Constitutional Court.

The decision of the Council of Ministers to dismiss, in cases where the initiative does not come from the Council of Ministers itself (case of absence for 3 months), is an ordinary administrative act, which is appealed to the Administrative Court.

The case where the proposal comes from the Municipal Council is not appealed to the Constitutional Court. Yesterday's government decision is appealed only to the Administrative Court.

Lawyer Genc Gjokutaj and others have caught this detail, and have also stated it in several of their own public appearances.

The above-mentioned article on dismissal, there are 3 cases when dismissal can be initiated.

The first 2 cases are at the initiative of the Council of Ministers itself.

These cases are appealed to the Constitutional Court.

The third case is the one that was implemented for Veliaj's dismissal.

So: The Municipal Council proposes, the Council of Ministers decides!

This case is being appealed to the Administrative Court.

And Veliaj's lawyers, Albanian and foreign, apparently don't care much about their client./ CNA
