Lawyer Kreshnik Spahiu drew a parallel between SPAK's request for the arrest of former minister Arben Ahmetaj and the case of Ilir Meta, when he was caught with "leek in his hands".
It is about the famous video with Dritan Prifti. Ilir Meta was caught asking for money, but at that time the General Prosecutor's Office did not request an arrest warrant for him. He was tried at large, despite being stripped of his immunity.
Meanwhile, according to Spahi, in the case of Ahmetaj, the situation is very different. According to him, the demand for arrest is too extreme.
" If today we had the number two of the opposition for an arrest measure, would the Albanian opposition vote for him today? This is where the debate begins. Albania has also investigated Ilir Meta in various legal and procedural circumstances. If Meta has been guaranteed his freedom in a criminal trial, this other one is going to arrest. The removal of the immunity of the former democratic leaders was under comfortable conditions and different from what is being done to high SP officials. The measure of arrest is extreme ", Spahiu said in a show.
Furthermore, the lawyer Kreshnik Spahiu stated that Albania should go to early elections due to the many scandals in the government, which culminated in Ahmetaj's case.
" I have declared since the first day that Albania should go to early elections. At the very least, Rama should pass a vote of confidence. The phenomenon was not born today, it has existed. Success will be measured by justice. In the eyes of foreigners, the arrest of the former deputy prime minister would be called a success. Ahmetaj was preparing to leave. He understood that he would be arrested when he was called to the Prosecutor's Office ", said Spahiu.
The Assembly decided today to approve SPAK's request for arrest. Voting will take place on Monday afternoon in a special session.
