Ervin Salianji

The deputy of the Democratic Party, Ervin Salianji, has shown that he is capable of doing anything to be a protagonist in politics. He did not hesitate at all when he became part of the audio-tap script for the brother of the Minister of the Interior, Fatmir Xhafaj, which actually turned out to be a montage and now he has to face justice.

While he is recognized by everyone as the worst or most banal example in politics, he not only does not publicly admit to the fraud he did, for which he should receive a punishment, but he tries to hide it. Even with his political maneuvers, he seeks to take advantage of this whole situation, "saving" through the Criminal Amnesty.

So, it is not enough only with the big public lie, with the attempt to cast ashes in the eyes of the Albanians and the democrats themselves, but now he tries again, secretly cooperating with the socialists to escape a punishment from the Albanian authorities.

He is often known as "Babalja", who has been wandering around the courts for 5 years, does everything to drag out this process and in the end comes out "washed" and sold as if he was in opposition, published a scandalous video and led the mass to a policeman with importance like that of Fatmir Xhafaj. This is Salianji, who is known for his "deeds" or messages with the famous GD.

How did it all start?

It all started in the spring of 2018, when Salianji went public and published an audio recording, in which, according to him, the brother of the Minister of the Interior at that time, Fatmir Xhafaj, was involved in drug trafficking.

So, according to the audio-interception, which actually turned out to be a edited material, Fatmir Xhafaj's brother, Agron Xhafaj, was accused of being caught in wiretapping with a former trafficker, Albert Veliu (Babalja).

But, from the investigations, it turned out that Fredi Alizoti was the person who in some cases does the voice of Agron Xhafajt (in the role). The video-taping and interview of Babale was carried out by the journalist Jetmir Olldashi.

According to the investigation file, Albert Veliu, known as Babalja, was accommodated at the PD headquarters where he also gave the interview. The stimulated conversation between Albert Veliu and Fredi Alizoti was recorded in January 2018. It was recorded on a pen-and-wire recording device which Albert Veliu handed over to Ervin Salianji.

Fredi Alizoti was sentenced by the court to 2 years of imprisonment on December 18, 2019.

On December 18, 2019, Ervin Salianji was sentenced to one year in prison by the Court of Tirana for the well-known "Babalja" file on the charge of false reporting. The court also decided to sentence Albert Veliu to 3 years and 6 months in prison. Salianji has made this punishment political.

What is expected to happen in the Appeal?

On February 29, the Court of Appeal set March 15, at 10:00 a.m., as a court session in charge of MP Ervin Salianji.

We emphasize here that the democratic deputy, who deceived the public and did everything to gain prominence in politics, is not judged by the Special Court, but by the Tirana Court of Appeal.

Thus, he has the opportunity to benefit from the Criminal Amnesty, since the latter, as the socialists have promised, does not include the decisions given by SPAK.
