The land in Farka, PD accuses Manjës: He should resign, SPAK should

The Democratic Party, through the spokeswoman for Anti-Corruption in the Democratic Party, Genta Vangjeli, has denounced the Minister of Justice Ulsi Manja this Saturday.

According to the democrat, Manja bought 1,000 m2 of land by the Farka lake with an unspecified value, and without declaring the time of purchase or the source of income.

Vangjeli, referring to the writings of some media, adds that Manja intends to transform the land into an asset worth hundreds of thousands of euros within a villa complex, under suspicions of circumventing market prices and conflict of interest.

According to Vangjeli Manja, he bought the land in 2021 from the official of Erion Veliaj, Arben Maloku of the file

5D, who at that time was the administrator of the local unit of Zall Herri, part of the Municipality of Tirana.

The Democratic Party demanded the resignation of Ulsi Manja from the post of minister and appealed to Spak to start immediate investigations into his wealth.

Genta Vangjeli's statement

Former assistant judge, former prosecutor and lawyer, socialist deputy, member of the special commission for legal reform and chairman of the Laws Commission, currently Minister of Justice Ulsi Manja, in the asset declaration form submitted on March 31, 2024, noted the purchase of a real estate land with an area of ??1000 m2, with an undetermined value, and without declaring the time of purchase nor the source of income generation.

Meanwhile, the media write (https://lapsi.al/2024/11/11/ulsi-manja-i-futet-biznesit-te-ndertimit-ministri-me-kompleks-vilash-ne-farke/) that after investing 3 million lek for the purchase of a piece of land by the lake of Farka, the Minister of Justice, Ulsi Manja intends to transform it into an asset worth hundreds of thousands of euros within a complex of villas with swimming pools and surrounding walls by the lake of Farka under suspicions of circumvention of market prices and conflict of interest.

Manja bought the land in 2021 from the official of Erjon Veliaj, Arben Maloku of constructions without permission and 5D, who at that time held the position of administrator of the local unit of Zall Herri, part of the Municipality of Tirana.

Three years after the purchase of the land, which he declared in the ILDKPI only in 2024 and not at the actual time of purchase, according to the same source, (https://lapsi.al/2024/11/11/ulsi-manja-i -the-minister-enters-the-construction-business-with-a-villa-complex-in-farke/), Manja and his wife applied for a construction permit in the Municipality of Tirana for the project of a villa complex, together with other owners of neighboring lands in Farka.

The details of the agreement between the land owners are unknown and do not appear to have been declared by Minister Manja at the ILDKPKI in 2023.

According to the same source, (https://lapsi.al/2024/11/11/ulsi-manja-i-futet-biznesit-te-ndertimit-ministri-me-kompleks-vilash-ne-farke/) Municipality of Tirana has confirmed the application for a building permit made on April 26, the request was recorded in the municipality on June 10 of this year, and is currently in the administrative review phase.

The Democratic Party has previously denounced Ulsi Manja (Ulsi Manja buys 1 thousand meters of land in Farka"/ Çlirim Gjata denounces the minister's affair) for this purchase of land below the reference price, avoiding taxes...

But has ILDKPI conducted an administrative investigation into the assets of Minister Ulsi Manja?!

Imagine what Albanians should expect from this Minister who leads the general anti-corruption directorate that extends to 47 institutions...

The Democratic Party urgently demands the resignation of Ulsi Manja from the post of minister and appeals to Spak to start immediate investigations into his wealth... / CNA
