The biggest problem with the macabre crime of January 21, apart from the other crime of obstructing the investigation, is the treatment of this event in public...
The problem of the gimmicks that Sali Berisha is now using to evade SPAK for the January 21st investigations, are just a fragment of a larger drama. Which in this case has no connection to the event, to the tragedy of the murder by the guards of 4 citizens who were on the boulevard.
The tragedy of January 21, 2011, is an event that does not need to be clarified, as everything about it was broadcast live with sound and image, while for its dark parts, we have a precise investigation by the American FBI.
Everything is known and proven about the event, the dynamics, the evidence, the perpetrators. Be it the act of murder, or the act of concealing the crime and its manipulation.
The biggest problem with the macabre crime of January 21, besides the other crime of obstructing the investigation, is the treatment of this event in public.
In all these years, an entire media establishment, clearly tied to the political narrative of those who committed the crime, has created a fable that this terrible crime should not punish the perpetrators and those who covered it up.
A narrative that has emerged from the mouths of a multitude of characters appearing on dinner panels, using either supposedly legal or political artifice.
This entire narrative has been nothing more than a mega-blackmail attempt to at least stop the trial of that macabre crime.
Whether by blaming the protesters, namely Edi Rama's opposition, or by minimizing that megacrime, with the most varied justifications.
This narrative thus created a shield of impunity that had an effect. Because none of the people of the "new justice" had the courage to reclaim the January 21 file, to bring to an end the justice that was not served the first time.
Everything happened thanks to the super-civic, super-European behavior of the victims' family, namely the family of Aleks Nika. Who, together with lawyer Dorjan Matlia, waged an epic legal battle, taking the case to the European Court of Human Rights.
Who, in a decision as she knows how to make, put the dry seal of "State Crime". A seal, which however was attempted to be falsified and relativized by the people of justice, who feared that file, as they considered it a time mine.
The investigation for January 21 does not need to be carried out by SPAK, since everything is known and proven. The Strasbourg Court has asked the Albanian justice system to do its duty, to adapt the procedures for separating the guilty. A procedural formality, where there is no need for exhaustive investigations, but simply to do the paperwork.
It is very likely that this procedural odyssey will also bring disappointments and problems, as they have started since "this morning". But, the new justice does not have the opportunity to "wash its hands" for subjective or objective reasons. The Strasbourg decision does not allow it. This is the real test for this justice that will show, precisely in the treatment of January 21, that it is not an audit commission, but an institution of justice.
Meanwhile, the biggest test is the entire political and media establishment, which has been talking all these years, but these days is silent. The treatment and standard that will handle the January 21 file now in SPAK, will be the most important test for this public group.
Which was clearly evident in the debate between Adriatik Lapaj and lawyer Mark Nika at a dinner panel, where the essential difference in approach was noted. Lapaj inventing a new lead for the murder of Aleks Nika, a frightening lead that resembled pistol umbrellas, and lawyer Nikaj, who with Olympic calmness invited him to return to logic and rationality.
