This mania of his is related not only to his past as a Party Secretary in communism, where biography was crucial in his career, but also to his primitive concept of the tribe and cousins, who should enjoy the privileges of someone in power.
The debate about why Berisha makes a biography of every judge or prosecutor who makes negative decisions against him has nothing to do with the personality of the judge or prosecutor. It doesn't matter if they are capable or really unlucky, honest or, as Berisha says, corrupt, transparent or people who hide their past.
Berisha already has a consolidated tradition in which facts are unnecessary when launching a campaign of attacks on people of justice. The reason is not to enlighten us as to who convicted him, but so that other judges and prosecutors can see what they might find when they sentence him.
That's all his hysteria.
In the case of judge Pëllumbi, he found a socialist uncle, while the same judge condemned a socialist minister with a controversial decision, but which did not make him the object of personal attacks.
What is interesting in this tradition of Berisha's attacks is the fetishization he has for people's biographies. For him, it is very important who are your cousins, who are your uncles, aunts, uncles, what they have done in life and how you are responsible for them.
I, personally, am grateful to Berisha, since during the time he was in power, I attacked him in the press for the corruption of his family, since I managed to recognize fifth or seventh cousins, who I did not know existed. Thanks to his attacks, which fired them or revealed their connections with me, I learned about my great tribe. It wasn't until they knocked on my house and told me they had fired me because of me and told me we were distant cousins that I understood this.
A month ago, for example, he discovered that Altin Dumani's wife's uncle's son worked in the Municipality of Tirana and was complicating Altin Dumani for the investigation against Erion Veliaj. Now he discovers that the uncle of this judge was in the 2000s the deputy minister of Ilir Meta, whom Berisha has as an ally. As for Irena Gjoka, he has revealed her husband's surname and a previous surname of her family, making her responsible for such a thing. He didn't get to know his Baxhanaku before he gave his life in Gërdec for Shkëlzen's money.
This mania of his is related not only to his past as a Party Secretary in communism, where biography was crucial in his career, but also to his primitive concept of the tribe and cousins, who should enjoy the privileges of someone in power.
This is the reason that the corruption in Berisha's regime was formulated around his son and daughter, through their cousins and further through their friends and associates. But even control over corruption was tribal. Argita appointed directors connected to the tribe, while Shkëlzeni used members of the tribe or loyal friends as "dummies" to invoice mortgages or financial actions, hiding the traces. In all cases, tribal ties have been decisive.
Therefore, do not try to judge what this judge is like who gave a decision for Berisha. It can be very professional or unprofessional, but it's not being attacked for that. It is being attacked so that everyone, after him, knows that they will also show their tenth cousins when they make decisions about Berisha. And it's not like they're not scared of it. Some decisions in his favor are the result of this fear, which has worked.
