The decision to confiscate unlicensed buildings has not penalized builders, but favored them, according to a report by Birn. The data show that the latter paid 220 euros/m2 for them, while with the market prices in Tirana they should have paid up to 10 times more.
Invited to discuss this topic in the "Review" show on Euronews Albania, the head of Lévizje Bashkë Arlind Qorri said that this is a clear example of inequality before the law.
He emphasized that the elderly who built a fence were arrested and punished, while the builders who built floors without permission for the purpose of profit, are amnestied by buying the apartments at ridiculous prices.
" The concrete case is a concrete example of inequality before the law. I went online a bit to see the people who were violated and arrested for illegal constructions, and I found many citizens who were arrested, convicted or received alternative forms of punishment for a fence or a roof or a wall. The Penal Code has a special article for construction without permission for the purpose of profit, this offense is punishable by 3 to 8 years of imprisonment. So those who build to win and those who have built several floors in the towers, have built to win.
The people who won and tried to win illegally not only have not been punished, I don't know if they will be investigated, but I don't believe it, so this is a scandalous case of inequality before the law ", said Qorri.
