Debates and irony in the Assembly/ Balla and Këlliçi clash over

Socialist Party MP Taulant Balla, in his speech in Parliament, reminded the opposition of the pressures on justice during their government.

Balla said that when someone from the DP had a case, everyone went to the doors of justice for pressure. The Chairman of the Parliamentary Group of the Socialist Party, Taulant Balla, said that it was finally decided in 2016 that justice is no longer decided by Parliament.

"I don't know where you find the inspiration to say that the Serious Crimes Prosecution had more results than SPAK, the results speak for themselves.

There is a fragment of the opposition that thinks differently, one of the myths that justice has broken is that there is no politician above the law and there is no one untouchable. The 2008-2013 progress reports had a sentence that Albania should have a list of high-level politicians who will be prosecuted. Where was the thought when you were in charge of the country that ministers, former ministers, deputies, did not even accept to go before the prosecutor. How long has it been since in 2011 the prime minister ordered the police not to implement orders to not accompany Guard employees.

We voted for the constitutional amendments on the basis of which the new foundation of new justice was established.

Therefore, always remember a saying of Josephine: "Better an empty cradle than a devil inside," and the devils should be driven away from justice. There is no magic wand that can drive away all the devils.

Fredi Beleri requested a university in Greek, but based on the census, we can't do it.

I believe that the Supreme Court and the Constitutional Court should focus on the recommendations of the Assembly, because we are being told all the issues that have not been addressed. Please consider saying why you have not implemented the recommendations.

It used to be that the presidential decree would come and then never come out, even though there was only 8 weeks left. In 2016, we agreed that politics would no longer appoint prosecutors and judges.

Blessed are we who have you, and woe to those who have you, for us to be like this for 100 years. The time when they were appointed by politics and the judge was lobbied for, then he was not independent. How could you expect the judge to do justice when he was elected by Parliament.

Justice is not good when it strikes the opponent's field and bad when it strikes your own party. From this side of the room we will not enter into issues of the merit of justice.

What is regrettable is that you have the same behavior, justice is justice, we must accept it.

"It's epochal what you did when someone had a case, you all went to justice . "

Balla addressed Këlliç and said that the candidate supported by the opposition, Florjan Binaj, is ashamed to meet with representatives of the DP during the day and meets at night. Balla said that Berisha is directing Binaj.

"I saw you in a photo with someone else, why are you meeting the candidate at night?

Meet the candidate during the day, he is afraid to meet you. There is some owl in Tirana who does not know that the director is Saliu.

How is it possible that you have degraded to the point where the candidate is ashamed to go out with you?

"Berisha tells Orange Florit what he needs to say at dinner."

The Democratic Party MP, in his speech in the Assembly, responded to Balla by stating that until the election date is set, the Socialists will vote for Florjan Binaj. Meanwhile, regarding the pressure on justice, Këlliçi reminded Balla of the evening of February 12 when Veliaj's supporters surrounded SPAK.

" Mr. Balla, you can make the photo public, I don't know what photo you saw. That survey that came out for Tirana has had its effects and showed support for the candidate supported by the opposition. You have inseparable election date with tomorrow. You, Mr. Braçe, should be the main supporter.

The Socialists will also vote for Florjan Binaj.

You who talk about intimidation of the justice system have only set the example on February 12 of this year, when, on the orders of the last inmate of Durres Prison, the institutions were raided, and although they asked for help from the Garda and the Police, no help came.

"As for justice, Irena Shpata Gjoka Maneku is a delinquent ," said Këlliçi./ CNA
