SPAK leader Altin Dumani clashed with Democrats in the Laws Committee. He was questioned by MP Oerd Bylykbashi about electoral crime.
The Democratic MP was criticized for investigating electoral crimes in the May elections. But Dumani reacted harshly, stating that they are ready to impeach a mayor involved in vote buying.
" We have taken a mayor into custody. Meanwhile, we have another mayor under investigation for active corruption in elections. We have arrested several people, some are for trial. We also have 8 criminal proceedings that we prioritize. And we will have concrete results. There is room to do more, but we must keep in mind that we are 20 prosecutors. We are not the police, nor customs, nor taxes. We are prosecutors and we have a constitutional obligation. As soon as we organize work, we see headlines in the media that you come out and say that votes are being bought ," said Dumani.
Excerpt from Duman's statement
We, in implementation of the recommendations of the Assembly, created a task force, but I cannot say that the task force has failed. There is room for improvement, but it has not failed. We have taken every report from every party seriously, also conducting verifications on the ground.
As for us, we have evaluated all the referrals received, regardless of whether they came from ordinary citizens, we have registered 44 criminal proceedings. In reality, SPAK has taken all the necessary actions.
Currently we have a mayor indicted for active corruption. This is a case where we have seen massive corruption. We have another mayor under investigation, we have several people under investigation and arrested for these elections. We also have 38 criminal proceedings, which we are pursuing with priority. We must bear in mind that we are an institution with 20 prosecutors, we are neither the state police nor customs.
We have also had a communication together, we have verified every claim of yours, we have sent a prosecutor even in the middle of the night. Some things need to be said as they are. And you have gone and thanked him. But Mr. Deputy, as we are organizing the work to investigate the case, we see in the media that votes are being bought in this country.
We have Mr. Gjoni, we have brought and verified every claim. We 20 prosecutors are, I said, I wish we had no case, I am just as concerned as you about vote buying. But these are the capacities and possibilities of SPAK.
