Ervin Karanxha brings back the famous file of the Durrës-Kukës road affair...
Prosecutor Ervin Karanxha made a strong statement this evening. He was on the podcast "Të Pashoq" on the Pamflet YouTube channel, to talk about justice and investigations into politics.
He said that in 2007, investigations into the Durrës-Kukës road affair began, and then the file was transferred to the General Prosecutor's Office, which at the time was headed by Ina Rama. According to Karanxha, this file was buried because of the Chief Prosecutor of the time, who brought it out of time.
" I had the file on the Durrës-Kukës road in my hands in 2007. The way cases were handled back then was such that if a minister or senior official was found to be involved, the General Prosecutor's Office had initial jurisdiction. Lulzim Basha, who was Minister of Transport, was referred to the General Prosecutor's Office for jurisdiction, as a ministerial rank. For a time, it was very large. Unfortunately, this file was destroyed, or it was removed from the deadline by the former General Prosecutor Ina Rama and the case was dismissed. It is a fact, if you search for it on the internet. It is the decision of the Supreme Court that the General Prosecutor's Office removed the file from the deadline ," he said.
According to the KLSH report, 230 million euros were stolen on the Durrës-Kukës road. At that time, the Supreme State Audit emphasized that the theft of money was done with fictitious invoices, with increased costs only on paper, with income tax, with payments for unfinished work. According to the KLSH file and report, since the beginning of this project, violations were pointed out, but everything passed into the government where Berisha decided politically.
Meanwhile, the contract drafted and then signed with representatives of the company "Bechtel & Enka" was made based on English laws and not Albanian ones.
On April 10, 2009, the Supreme Court dismissed the case against Lulzim Basha, dismissing the General Prosecutor's Office's file as invalid, since the prosecution had acted beyond the deadline and in the circumstances when the courts had dismissed the prosecutor's request to extend the investigation by one month. Specifically, the prosecution had sent the investigative file to Lulzim Basha outside the deadline for him to familiarize himself with it. / Pamphlet
