According to Dumani, 33 senior officials have been criminally prosecuted this year, while the cases have been sent to court for prosecution.
" The number and quality of investigations has increased. We have managed to initiate important proceedings for active and passive corruption of high-level officials ," Dumani declared.
He also informed that special investigation techniques were used, including wiretapping with intercepted devices. Specifically, during 2024, 163 criminal proceedings were registered where 3096 terminal devices (telephone numbers and devices of the subjects under surveillance) were intercepted.

Dmth, me kete pergjimin e telefonave ju i paralajmeroni kodoshet e krimit te gjejne forma te tjera komunikimi. Pa krim nuk ka biznes avokatesh, prokuroresh e gjykatesish. Dikur, "ne kohen e qenit" Shqiperia kishte nja 10 prej tyre por kishte me mijera inxhiniere, teknike, agronome, kimiste, fizikante e njrez te mire qe punuan e ngriten lart Atdheun Shqiperi, duke ngritur nje industri nga hici deri te lartesia e pamenduar nga Shqiptaret. Ne 1957en u prodhua pistoni i pare nga Shkodrani mjeshter zotni Lec Barbullushi e pas 25 vitesh Shqiptaret prodhuan traktore e ngritem metalurgji, prodhuan arme, mbuluan trojet e nenave e baballareve me bunkere dhe e kethyen Shqiperine ne Zot te vehtes. Oh sa krenari ishte kur shihje produkte Made in ALBANIA. Come on EAGLELAND, what ever happen you will never ever die. Why!? Still there left is just one EAGLE or EAGLET in the planet Earth. I am talking about Eagles not laraskas.
