A preliminary hearing will be held today at 11:30 at the GJKKO for the "Partizani" file for former Prime Minister Sali Berisha and his son-in-law Jamarbër Malltezi.
The matter has dragged on until now after Sali Berisha's defenders managed to delay it with their attempts after the May 11 elections.
Judge Floreja Davidhi is expected to decide whether to pass the case file for trial with defendants Sali Berisha, Jamarbër Malltez, Fatmir Bektashi, Xhimi Begeja and Andia Pustina.
In the last session, held on May 5, Berisha used another maneuver, producing a document through which he claimed that the preliminary investigation judge Irena Gjoka had been convicted in 2005 in Greece for forging travel documents. With this decision, the former prime minister's defense requested in the preliminary session the revocation of the decision for the invalidity of the evidence taken by Gjoka.
Berisha's defense claims that if the document regarding Gjoka's conviction is true, any decision made by the preliminary investigation judge lacked legitimacy.
Also on May 13, the GJKKO rejected his second request for the disqualification of judge Flojera Davidhi regarding the Partizani file.
Sending the case to trial would be Berisha and Malltezi's first real confrontation with justice. Berisha is under "compulsory appearance" for corruption, while his son-in-law Malltezi is being investigated under house arrest, accused of passive corruption and money laundering.
