Who financed the Democratic Party's Re-establishment Assembly on December 11, 2021? This is the issue that SPAK is investigating as part of an in-depth wealth investigation into former Prime Minister Sali Berisha and his family members. The investigations are being led by Prosecutor Arben Kraja, while a day earlier, MP Belind Këlliçi was questioned.
Meanwhile, today, Indrit Hoxha, Secretary for Diaspora, and one of the names that appeared at the side of Sali Berisha 5 years ago, as the latter launched an "operation" to take over the leadership of the party from Lulzim Basha, after the latter accepted the Americans' request to expel the former Prime Minister from the Parliamentary Group, after being declared "non grata".
Hoxha, like Këlliçi, is being questioned as a person who may have knowledge of the expenses and who covered them, while Flamur Noka and Albana Vokshi are also next in line to be questioned. But the list continues with other names of democratic functionaries who in December 2021 appeared as organizers or who were part of the Re-establishment Commission.
The Extraordinary Assembly, as it was called at the time, was held at the "Air Albania" stadium, as the national stadium was called at the time, and it seemed that this location was chosen to show the strength that Sali Berisha had in relation to Lulzim Basha, in terms of DP membership.
Over 10,000 members, as reported at the time by Rithemelimi, gathered at the stadium to decide on the dismissal of Lulzim Basha as Chairman of the DP and the election of Sali Berisha. The pompous display, in one way or another, also demonstrated Berisha's power not simply in relation to the number of members, but also in the way in which he had decided to actively return to the leadership of the DP.
Through a spectacle, defying even the freezing temperatures of 5 years ago, none of the organizers had thought that a day would come when SPAK would investigate who sponsored the activity or the sources of funds for organizing the Extraordinary Assembly.
Officially, the Democratic Party led by Sali Berisha did not state any figures on how much this activity cost, although it was promised that everything would be made public, while Lulzim Basha was accused of not showing transparency about the way he had administered the funds that the DP received from the state budget.
At that time, there were mutual accusations and, ironically, some of those who once accused each other precisely for the funds or forged seals and signatures are today in a group, in a party, sharing positions.
