More details emerge from the hearing against Ilir Meta.
During his speech in the hall, Meta attempted to distance himself from the actions of his ex-wife, Monika Kryemadhi, stating that criminal responsibility is individual and that he cannot be held responsible for actions committed without his knowledge.
" Out of respect for the court, I must clarify that even Mrs. Gjoka understood this story in the preliminary hearing. I have a divorced status, I cannot hold you responsible for what Kryemadhi did in the past without my knowledge. My responsibility is individual. Show me an expense that I made. I even got the watch 20 years ago. I don't attach much importance to these things ," Meta declared in the courtroom.
The former president's statement came at a time when SPAK was reading evidence and communications from the investigative file related to the CEZ-DIA affair, LSI's lobbying in the US, and relations with businessman Ardian Shatku.
According to the prosecution, Meta and Kryemadhi exerted influence on the introduction of Shatku's company into the fiber optic sector.
" Meta and Kryemadhi have undertaken to exert pressure on the CEZ-DIA issue so that Ardian Shatku's company can enter the market ," declared SPAK prosecutor Sotir Kllapi.
Episodes related to alleged expenses of Monika Kryemadhi were also read in the hall.
" The boss used 234 thousand dollars from Ardian Shatku's cards ," said the prosecutor.
During the hearing, there were also debates about the live broadcast of the process and the presence of the public in the courtroom. Meta's lawyers opposed the restriction of the media and the manner in which the former president was kept in the glass cage.
The court rejected the request for live broadcast of the hearing, arguing that it could violate the principle of innocence and the privacy of witnesses.
Ilir Meta and Monika Kryemadhi are accused by SPAK of corruption, money laundering and concealment of assets in connection with the CEZ-DIA affair and LSI lobbying in the US.
