Arben Rakipi, the man behind the successive scandals with the leadership of the Magistrates' School where the competition lists are inflated, the man who is in conflict of interest and in violation of the law after exercising his activity in his private entity, the man whose law firm is defending the mayor arrested for two serious offenses, Erion Veliaj, has recently openly expressed his approval for the legalization of prostitution and brothels.
According to Rakipi, prostitution and brothels should be accepted. During an interview with journalist Elona Meço on RTSH, Rakipi stated that this standard has been accepted in many legislations and should be accepted in our country as well.
Excerpt from the conversation
Elona Meço: How is it possible that you came to such a conclusion where from a country that completely criminalized prostitution and brothels you go to the opposite, legalizing prostitution and brothels?
Arben Rakipi : Whether we like it or not, the circumstances in this country have changed. This kind of phenomenon, which is a serious social scourge, I would say a wound in the concept and from my moral point of view, is like that. I am pushing this legal state structure to become acceptable. What must be respected is the right of women or men to enjoy their own bodies, not to be exploited. The exploitation of prostitution is punishable. This is a standard that has already been accepted in many legislations. There are other countries that consider it a social scourge, as I think it is, but this is a matter for discussion./ CNA
