Veliaj today demands freedom in exchange for wealth
Erion Veliaj

Today, at 2:00 PM, a court hearing will take place at the Special Court of Appeal for the arrested mayor of Tirana, Erion Veliaj.

The hearing will be held after there is an appeal against the decision of the Court of First Instance to extend the security measure.

The judge in the case is expected to be Engert Pëllumbi, the same judge who detained Erion Veliaj after appealing the court's decision on the security measure.

Meanwhile, through his lawyers, Veliaj has requested a more lenient security measure, in exchange for providing a financial guarantee.

At a time when SPAK has informed Veliaj that he has committed the criminal offense of corruption 9 times, Veliaj is offering money for his release from prison.

Whose money will Erion Veliaj use to pay the bail, when the Special Prosecution Office is investigating precisely this money?

We remind you that the arrested mayor of Tirana, who is being held in Durrës prison, faces 12 charges for 4 criminal offenses:

“Active and passive corruption of local elected officials”, “Laundering the proceeds of crime”, “Bringing prohibited items into detention cells”, “Refusal to declare, failure to declare, concealment or false declaration of assets, private interests of elected officials and public servants or of any other person who has a legal obligation to declare”.

The last charge was added to Veliaj on May 22, 2025./ CNA
