CNA has revealed the 366-page file of the Special Court, which details how Erion Veliaj and Ajola Xoxa attempted to destroy evidence and obstruct the investigation and the work of the agents.
SPAK has concluded that the mayor of Tirana sent intimidating messages to the BKH agents who were handling his case.
"In this sense, taking into account the environment where the citizens under investigation live, the public function exercised by citizen Erion Veliaj, the numerous acquaintances, the connections secured and the very strong influence that stems from the exercise of this function, the importance of which increases exponentially given the territory it covers and the public funds administered by the Municipality of Tirana, as the largest Municipality in the country, assessing the behavior displayed by the citizen under investigation Erion Veliaj himself while sending messages of a strongly intimidating nature towards the BKH investigators, whom he openly asks to stop calling his wife to give statements, the presence of one of the mayors of the Municipality of Tirana during the meetings held by the latter's wife with the persons summoned by the proceeding body, as well as during the control exercised by the BKH investigators, as well as taking into account the behavior of citizen Ajola Xoxa, especially after the controls exercised according to the decision of the Court of Appeals." Special Court of First Instance Corruption and Organized Crime, the proceeding body has concluded that there is a real risk that some evidence will not be obtained or will be obtained in a 'poisoned' form. In the conditions where the citizen under investigation, Erion Veliaj, is proven to have sent written messages to the addresses of the investigators of the National Bureau of Investigation, messages that seem to have the aim of intimidating these officials during the performance of their duties, it can be easily imagined how this citizen could then behave with potential witnesses in this process, that is, with the evidence that is requested to be obtained by the proceeding body. Also, the presence of important employees of the Tirana Municipality, direct subordinates of the citizen Erion Veliaj, both during the contacts that the citizen Ajola Xoxa had with the persons summoned to give statements at the Special Prosecution Office, as well as during the moments of the control in the offices of "Partners Law" shpk, proves the intention to jeopardize the collection of evidence, but on the other hand also the mixing of the public and private functions of the head of the municipality, by asking the persons who depend on him to have unauthorized contacts with investigators in the performance of their duties. On the other hand, given that the main part of the criminal investigation is focused on activities related to the Municipality of Tirana, it is clear that the possibility of jeopardizing the collection of necessary evidence from the offices of this institution is tangible, since by its very hierarchical nature, persons dependent on their functions may be intimidated by the citizen under investigation", the file states.
It is also noted that Ajola Xoxa has previously contacted all the witnesses who were summoned to the Special Prosecution Office.
"This situation is even more serious if we consider the suspicions of committing actions that hinder the discovery of the truth. A large part of the declarants have claimed that they were contacted by the state Ajola Xoxa and were even summoned by her, giving them guidance on how to behave before the proceeding body," the decision states./ CNA
