"Basha was called to clarify the dynamics of January 21"/ Journalist:

Journalist Klodiana Lala, invited to the TPZ show with journalist Ylli Rakipi, provided details about the appearance of former Democratic Party leader Lulzim Basha at SPAK. Lala said that the summons bore the signature of special prosecutor Alfred Shehu.

The journalist said that Basha was called to clarify the dynamics because he appeared on the terrace of the Prime Minister's Office on January 21.

" Lulzim Basha responded to the summons signed by prosecutor Alfred Shehu. A criminal proceeding has been registered for the four murders of protesters on January 21. SPAK is investigating several criminal offenses. Aleks Nika's widow addressed SPAK and requested an investigation of the officials who, according to her, were involved in the murder of her husband.

If you remember, during the process, Ndrea Prendi and Agim Llupo were convicted for the murder of Ziver Veizi and Faik Myrtaj, with ridiculous sentences. The murder of Hekuran Deda and Aleks Nika remained unsolved. Aleks Nika's widow turned to SPAK. SPAK initially claimed that it had no jurisdiction and that it belonged to the Tirana Prosecutor's Office. In 2021, the Supreme Court said that SPAK should investigate.

Since 2024, when criminal proceedings were registered, a number of officials, guards, former guards, and other people have been questioned. Basha was called as a person with knowledge, as he was Minister of Interior when the incident occurred.

Based on information published by Artan Hoha and Aleks Nika's uncle, there are several radio communications.

On January 21, a vehicle attempted to break through the perimeter of the Prime Minister's Office and was shot at by protesters. Mr. Basha appears on the terrace of the Prime Minister's Office. He has been called to explain the dynamics, who was in the building, whether apart from Ndrea Prendi, whether it was Mr. Berisha and who gave the order.

Lala said that if the communications are fully revealed, it will be verified who ordered the shooting. Lala said that guard Llupo fired with a gun while Ndrea Prendi fired with his pistol.

"Mr. Matlija said there are two essential moments. If the radio communications are fully revealed, it will be verified who gave the order, after initially being shot with dummy bullets, but in the end. Agim Llupo shoots with a gun and Ndrea Prendi with his pistol."

The journalist stated that Basha was called to provide clarifications about the communications and the bullet found in the head of the deceased Aleks Nika. Lala said that a new examination of the bullet will be conducted to analyze which weapon it came from.

" Basha has been called for clarification. First, there are the communications, of which we have only heard part, and second, the shell that was removed from Aleks Nika's head in Turkey. The authorities initially said they do not have a laboratory or expert to analyze where the shell came from.

With the latest developments, it has been concluded that foreign experts, and it is a specialized laboratory, will conduct a new examination of the projectile. If it is confirmed which weapon it came from, we may have a change in the dynamics of the event. These are the key moments.

"During the first trial, US assistance was requested to restore the footage from the prime minister's server that was found to have been deleted. At the time, it was said that they would not be recovered, but now with developments, there may be a possibility of their recovery ," Lala declared.
