The appeal of GJKKO has decided to leave in force the security measure of arrest in prison for Evis Berberi, the former head of ARRSH and the two businessmen, Valter Begaj and Ervis Lami.
The Special Appeal dismissed today the appeals made by the former head of ARRSH Evis Berberi, Valter Begajt and Ervis Lamit, leaving in effect the decision of GJKKO.
Evis Berberi and his two associates, businessmen Ervis Lami and Valter Begaj, accused of corruption and money laundering, will continue to be investigated under the security measure of 'prison arrest'.
Berberi, Begaj and Lami were arrested on March 16 of this year. All three were placed in handcuffs by order of the Posaccme Anticorruption Prosecutor's Office for "violation of equality in tenders", "post corruption", "active corruption" and "money laundering".
From the investigations of the Special Prosecutor's Office, it was found that Berberi, during the time he was in charge of the Agency for Energy Efficiency but also recently in charge of ARRSH, awarded six tenders to the company of his partner Valter Begaj and then the profits went to the company he owned indirectly.
The two businessmen Lami and Begaj are suspected to have made a fictitious sale of the company of the former head of ARRSH and other fictitious actions, making it possible to hide the crime of corruption, in cooperation with Berberi.
SPAK's investigation shows that the benefit was about 2.2 million euros that were invested by the company "DAAM" shpk, in real estate. In parallel with this investigation, SPAK has also launched an investigation into the assets of the three persons, as they are accused of money laundering.
"The Special Court of Appeal for Corruption and Organized Crime, with a monocratic panel composed of judge Saida Dollani, today on 25.04.2024, announced the decision on criminal case no. 16 act, registration date 16.04.2024, on the complaints of persons under investigation EB, EL, VB, with object: "Appeal against decision no. 21, dated 13.03.2024, verified by decision no. 27, dated 16.03.2024 of the Special Court for Corruption and Organized Crime" , disposed of in the case of personal insurance measures, and decided:
Approval of decision no. 21, dated 13.03.2024 and decision no. 27, dated 16.03.2024 of the Special Court of First Instance for Corruption and Organized Crime," the press release states.
Who is the former director of ARSH, Evis Berberi, who is re-designing the same study several times?
Evis Berberi is the owner of 20 percent of the capital of the company "DAAM shpk" from September 14, 2018 to January 31, 2019.
Berberi himself has been very close to Minister Balluku for years, as when he was head of Procurement at ALBCONTROL in 2013-2019 and then also Advisor to the Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy or director of the Energy Efficiency Agency, until June 2021 when he passed in charge of the Roads Authority. In all these positions, Barber has "made sure" that many funds go to his private company, "DAAM shpk".
How much money does Evis Berberi declare in his wealth?
On March 5, 2019, Evis Berberi declared to ILDPKI his salary from the position as administrator of the company "DAAM shpk". Salary from the job position as a technical manager at the company "Bvaal Engineering shpk".
A year later, on March 6, 2020, as well as in the following years, on March 31, 2021 and April 9, 2021, Evis Berberi declared in the ILDKPI his salary as an advisor in the Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy. Salary as a Board member at the Construction Institute. Salary as Chairman of the Board of Albpetrol. Salary as a board member in the Durrës Port Authority.
Likewise, income received by the wife as a result of the land lease contract related to the BANKERS company also results.
However, despite the fact that the sale of his trading company was declared, in none of the above forms there is no data for the declaration of the sale of the company "Daam shpk".
In addition, the connection between the director of ARRSH, Evis Berberi and Valter Begajn does not come only to the sale-purchase transaction of the company "B - VAAL ENG - 10", which later changed its name to "DAAM". From September 2018, when Evis Berberi bought Begajt's company, he has been working in the same office with him.
According to the CKB data, apart from the company "B-VAAL ENG-10", Valter Begaj is the founder and still the owner of the other company "B-VAAL ENGINEERING". He founded this company on August 28, 2017, three months before he founded the company that Evis Berberi later bought. Like "B-VAAL ENG-10", which changed its name to "DAAM", B-VAAL ENGINEERING also changed its name to "NET-Group".
The object of both companies remains the same, that of studying, designing and supervising engineering works. Apart from the facility, the two companies end up with the same identical address. Valter Begajt's "NET-Group" company, three months after Evis Berberi was elected director of the Albanian Road Authority, that is, in August 2021, wins a tender worth about 175 million lek including VAT for the supervision of works in Lot 7 of the Great Ring Road .
In addition, from the data published in the Public Procurement Agency, the company is also the winner for the supervision of three projects in the Municipality of Durrës with a total value of about 10 million lek.
