The court has not changed the security measures for the accused in the affair with the "Partizani" complex.
The son-in-law of the former prime minister Berisha, Jamarbër Malltezi and the builder Fatmir Bektashi faced the court today to familiarize themselves with the security measures. Malltezi was arrested on Saturday for corruption and money laundering, while the court imposed an "obligation to appear" on the builder Fatmir Bektashi.
They appeared before judge Irena Gjoka, contesting the charges. The lawyers have claimed that there is no illegal gain and that the property has been returned to the owners. According to them, the income was obtained from a legal activity.
" Our position is that there is no criminal offense in this particular case. The persons under investigation are facing a pure legal-civil relationship. It cannot be alluded to by means of laws or VKM, which have not even been contested, to claim the commission of criminal offenses. Our position with the attributed accusations, a denial position, I say this with conviction as far as we could see the fascicles. To accuse someone because he is a legal heir of a tyrannical family, such as Begeja, and that he has entered into contractual relations with another heir of another tyrannical family, is very bold. The standard of proof is very low and with these hints, the principle of legal certainty is being violated here in this country ", said Klodian Skenderi, Jamarbër Malltez's lawyer.
But the judge did not change the measures by leaving Berisha's son-in-law in prison and the businessman Fatmir Bektashi to appear.
According to SPAK, Malltezi is suspected of having committed the criminal offense of "Passive corruption of high state officials or local elected officials", committed in cooperation with Berisha, since in agreement with the latter, using the power of the former Prime Minister, he managed to obtain irregular benefits as follows: Privatization of grounds and sports facilities, with the sole purpose of being shot in the hand, changed destination and used for material benefits by Malltezi.
The changes made regarding the destination of the areas from sports to residential, which has led to the construction, from which Malltezi has directly benefited.
