Berisha attacks Rusmal by inventing after 16 years some events that never

Former Prime Minister Sali Berisha

Yesterday, in a television appearance, Sali Berisha invented a story to attack the former Deputy Prime Minister, the former Minister of Justice, the former Chairman of the Law Commission, the former MP Ilir Rusmali.

What Sali Berisha stated yesterday has nothing to do with what happened 16 years ago. Berisha said that he fired Rusmal because:

"He flagrantly broke the law in a corrupt manner. The General Director of prisons opens a tender and the brother of Ilir Rusmaili goes to the tender and the director records when his brother threatened him with his brother. Iliri dismissed the director Saimir Shehri. It happened that the day the scandal came out, I should to leave for lunch outside. I made him understand that the problem will be examined when I return. He fired him when it was the competence of the prime minister and when I returned he received a dismissal", said Berisha.

Why Berisha lied publicly and for what reasons 16 years later he remembers to make up stories that never happened at all.

The facts of 16 years ago are different.

16 years ago Ilir Rusmali did not resign as Deputy Prime Minister but as Minister of Justice. 16 years ago, in his public resignation statement, Rusmali clarified the conflict he had with Berisha, and at the center of the conflict was an inspection carried out at the Directorate of Prisons.

16 years ago, the former Minister for the first time revealed the wound of the release of criminals from Albanian prisons. That wound whose denunciation was soon forgotten became the gangrene of the justice system.

The scheme that the former Minister denounced by mentioning those cases that he had discovered, produced today as we speak a long list of criminals released from prisons illegally.

Ilir Rusmali

Berisha neither then nor now spoke about the denunciation made by the former Minister, although the former Minister stated that for those reasons he had twice officially asked the Prime Minister to dismiss the Director General of Prisons, which Berisha said yesterday that Rusmali himself had dismissed him without asked him, taking advantage of a lunch that Berisha had just eaten outside.

16 years ago, there was no act of dismissal of Director Saimir Shehri from Rusmali, but there was an inspection report in Albanian prisons that revealed the scheme of releases from prisons in cooperation between prison officials, judges and doctors.

Why is Berisha lying when he says that he dismissed Rusmali as Deputy Prime Minister when the fact is that after serving as Deputy Prime Minister, Rusmali was appointed Minister of Justice and then Chairman of the Laws Commission.

Sali Berisha, former prime minister

Ilir Rusmali in 2007 discovered and implemented the scheme of early release of criminals. He created and presented that scheme to Sali Berisha, took actions to destroy the scheme and bring the perpetrators to justice.

16 years ago Rusmali denounced what he called: "...serious circumstances and facts, first and foremost the illegal release of extremely dangerous prisoners."

How did I dismiss him as Deputy Prime Minister for corruption and then appoint him as Minister?

What forces Berisha to lie 16 years later?

The value when attacked is multiplied and this mathematical principle does not justify either the logic or the motives that push Berisha to his attack.

Rusmali left PD, Berisha, and even if the attack is related to the exercise of duty today by Rusmali as a member of KAS, it is absurd that he is asked to account by Berisha.

Berisha's old style, which after pushing people away, also asks them to account for why they don't do what Berisha wants, doesn't hold water, especially in Rusmali's case.

In 16 years, Rusmal's political gesture has been cited, shaken, put in front of opponents, by Berisha himself and his next associates.

Accusing Rusmal today of not working for Berisha is idiotic.

What has Berisha claimed these 10 years that Rusmali has left the political scene, that Rusmali still works as Berisha's lawyer? Regardless of Rusmal's vote in KAS, Berisha has no political, moral and (recognizing the ability of Berisha's former advisor) legal justification for his claims.

Ilir Rusmali

In the DP, there was a saying among friends of Rusmal (unfortunately, all of them today have the status of former associates of Berisha): "Iliris is the man who knows Berisha best."

In his resignation letter, 16 years ago, the former Minister said, among other things:

"...This is an event much more than the magnitude of God Shehri, however, time will tell and you will write about it".

Exactly what he predicted is happening./ CNA.al
