Two weeks after the Court of Appeal partially reopened the judicial process and the criminal examination of the incident where Pjerin Xhuvani was killed, the next hearing will be held today against former officer Arbër Paplekaj, who is sentenced to 20 years in prison.
During today's day, it is expected that the experts will be sworn in, in order to start work on clarifying the details.
Arbër Paplekaj in the appeal requests that the prosecution explain what happened on the day of the event, who shot on the day of the event, when the experiment of the scene will be performed and the request for the requalification of the criminal offense.
The appeal requires the determination, as well as the suspect, of the position of the shooters at the scene and the distance between them and the victim Pjerin Xhuvani.
Paplekaj demands a change of measure from "intentional murder" to murder in severe psychological conditions.
After listening to the parties for almost six hours and the insistence of the accused who asked for a reconstruction of the event to understand the mechanism of what happened that day, the Court of Appeal decided to conduct a technical-ballistics examination in the session of March 4 of this year to find out who another shot on election day.
The court also ordered the prosecution to receive information from the First Degree on the continuation of the suspended proceedings for the persons who fired firearms at the scene, as well as to have information about the two citizens Donald Zëre and Miles Kurti, accused of perjury on the event.
From the 2021 event in the city of Elbasan, Paplekaj has insisted that he fired a firearm in self-defense, while charges were also brought against eight local police officers, including two police officials in Elbasan.
The former special forces officer, already sentenced to 20 years in prison, Arbër Paplekaj was found guilty of the charge of murder in qualifying circumstances, but he insists that he is innocent of this crime, requesting requalification of the crime of murder in conditions of severe shock. psychic.
