The trial on the merits for Veliaj begins/Date set

On March 9, a court hearing on the merits will be held for the arrested mayor of Tirana, Erion Veliaj.

The judging panel, determined by lot, is composed of Engjëllushe Tahiri, Alma Kodraliu and Rudina Palloj.

On February 9, the GJKKO passed the case of Veliaj and 29 other people for trial. Veliaj has been in Durrës prison for a year after SPAK tried 13 charges for 5 serious criminal offenses.

Veliaj has been left in prison by all levels of courts, after allegedly tampering with evidence.

The mayor is in prison after being caught in corruption, abuse of office, laundering criminal proceeds, concealing assets, and bringing prohibited items into the cell.

For a year since his arrest, Veliaj has been pursuing a campaign of attacks on prosecutors and the judiciary with manipulations and lies that are then sent to the Department of Justice in the form of reports.

Veliaj continues to use his media to attack the judiciary, prosecutors and judges./ CNA
