Hearing against Veliaj at the GJKKO/ Dumani: We would ask the court to hold a

A hearing is underway at the Special Court on the merits of the case against the arrested mayor Erion Veliaj and his associates.

In today's session, one of the prosecutors in the Altin Dumani case requested the dismissal of the request for separation of the defendants ML and "L... shpk".

The prosecution's request came with the reasoning that the evidence against ML and "L... shpk" influences others.

Regarding the request to hold the trial once every two weeks, Dumani said that the prosecution could also request a trial every day, but it is known that this is impossible, so once a week is appropriate.

Meanwhile, regarding the request of the arrested mayor Erion Vleiaj for a live broadcast of the session, Dumani said that the equivalence of the public session with a live broadcast is not based on legal provisions.

" We request the dismissal of the request for the separation of the defendants ML and "L... shpk". The proceedings are connected. The evidence against ML and "L... shpk" also affects the others. The court has expressed its opinion on Veliaj's request for live broadcast. The session is public. The equivalence of the public session with live broadcast is not based on legal provisions. Regarding the request for a trial once every two weeks, we have another request. We would ask the court to hold a trial every day. We know that this is not possible due to the workload, so a trial once a week is OK ", said Dumani.
