If this expressing indirect interest received 491,000 euros and a villa, what about the officials who performed direct actions, signed signatures and initiated procedures to approve concession contracts, how many bribes did they receive?
The Special Anticorruption Prosecutor's Office says that former Deputy Prime Minister Arben Ahmetaj received 491,000 euros and a villa in bribes to help Mirel Mërtir and Klodian Zoto get the concessions of the three incinerators. But SPAK does not raise any charges of abuse of office against the former Minister of Finance and Economy.
Article 244 of the Criminal Code defines the offense of passive corruption as "Requesting or receiving, directly or indirectly, any kind of irregular benefit..., from the person exercising public functions, to perform or not perform an action related to the duty and its function...."
This raises the question, what action did or did not the former Minister of Finance perform in exchange for the bribe? The investigative file does not say so. Instead, the prosecutors say that Ahmetaj indirectly expressed interest in state offices or cafes for the incinerator concessions to be approved. This raises a second question, perhaps more fundamental than the first.
If this expressing indirect interest received 491,000 euros and a villa, what about the officials who performed direct actions, signed signatures and initiated procedures to approve concession contracts, how many bribes did they receive?
For example, did the General Secretary of the Prime Minister receive bribes or not, when he passed the illegal VKM of the direct negotiation procedure for Elbasan to the government, even though he received a clear rejection from the APP? He acted directly in violation of the law, he did not express an indirect interest.
What about the government cabinet, which approved the decision, how many bribes did it receive? They also acted directly, they were not interested indirectly. How many bribes were given for the passage of 17 legal acts in one day? Who was the authority that had this power?
All these shortcomings in the investigation file of the incinerators are not accidental. They stem from a simple fact. At least until now, SPAK has not investigated the procedural part of the incinerators at all. And the procedural investigation of incinerators is done with just one simple question. Were the incinerators a tender or a concession?
If SPAK raises this question, the vast majority of the leading elite of Rilindja will go to prison. 63 million euros of public money were paid to the Tirana concessionaire, but there is no incinerator.
Because SPAK does not touch the procedure, the inquiry into incinerators has produced a unique absurdity. SPAK says that two ministers took bribes for the incinerators, but does not say that the incinerators are a corrupt affair. In fact, the prime minister himself says that he is proud of those works, describing them as one of the best works that has ever been done in Albania.
If the incinerators are not corruption, where did the money that bribed the ministers come from, because in a legal contract there is no excess money for bribes? This is the great absurdity where the investigation of incinerators has fallen. For a very simple fact. Because if SPAK dares and says that incinerators are corruption, it will have to block Tirana as well.
But Tirana is not affected. There, 1 and a half million euros of public money per month continue to be paid, even though today we have a minister in prison, the former deputy prime minister on the threshold of prison and the owners of the concession in international search for the incinerators.
So Albanians will have to be satisfied with Lefter Koka and Arben Ahmetaj in prison as scapegoats (if the latter has not escaped as is rumored) and continue to be robbed every month of 1 million euros, money of which it is not known who takes them SPAK, for example, which found the 1,000 euros over the 490 cents that Ahmetaj received from Zoto, says that we do not know who receives the 1.5 million euros that citizens pay every month for the incinerators. / Oligarchia.al
