Prime Minister Edi Rama declared in Brussels a few days ago that 17 judges and prosecutors have been dismissed because of the Vetting process.
He made this triumphalist statement during a meeting with European Commission President Jean Claude Juncker.
Rama, trying to get the merits of the Justice Reform, which was adopted with full political consensus for the truth, sent false data to the center of the European Union.
Either Rama lied to Juncker, or Rama lied to his staff, since departures from the justice system are less than 17. Moreover, some of these departures over the last year have nothing to do with Wetting. Of the total 14 officials dismissed, 3 have retired, 5 have completed their tenure and the remainder, 6, have resigned or been dismissed for reasons related to Wetting.
In other words, the figure 17 cited by Rama and the real figure 6 departures due to Wetting are far apart. The European bureaucracy, notwithstanding the Prime Minister’s unwavering support from the Delegation in Tirana, is not one to be easily lied to.
Boldnews.al remembers the names and reasons of judges who have been dismissed in the past 12 months, in chronological order:
Vladimir Kristo, a member of the Constitutional Court, declined to complete the Vetering’s statements in February 2017. Kristo’s term as a member of this court had expired two years ago. Political controversy had blocked the election of his successor. After waiting two years for the offspring’s name, Christo decided to step down.
Drita Veliu, a judge at the Kukes Court, did not complete the Veting forms after retiring a few weeks after the deadline for submitting the Veting documents. He preferred to enjoy his retirement without the bureaucracy of state bureaucracies.
Sulejman Tola, a prosecutor in Kruja, much like Drita Veliu, was on the verge of retirement. For this reason, he preferred not to get tired of collecting documentation, as long as he would soon be out of the justice system because of age.
Mirela Fana, a member of the Supreme Court, resigned from her constitutional position. Her colleagues associate resignation more with a request from her husband, the well-known lawyer Neshat Fana, than she was afraid of Vetving. Attorney Fana, it seems, has not preferred that his multi-year career in defending many political and criminal characters be turned into a subject of public discussion in the Woking Commission and other persons who have access to this. institution.
Ilir Çeliku, judge at the Vlora Appeal, refused to fill out the Veting forms, automatically being excluded from the justice system. He has declined to make public the reasons for the departure and may be linked to Wetting
Ilir Pashaj, a judge in Elbasan, refused to fill out the Veting forms, automatically being excluded from the justice system. He has declined to make public the reasons for the departure and may be linked to Wetting
Andy Çeliku, a member of the Supreme Court, ended his legal mandate after completing the Veting forms. So it is not a resignation due to Wetting, but the legal mandate ends.
Alexander Muskaj, a member of the Supreme Court, ended his legal mandate after completing the Veting forms. So it is not a resignation due to Wetting, but the legal mandate ends.
Evelina Qirjako, a member of the Supreme Court, ended her legal mandate after completing the Veting forms. So it is not a resignation due to Wetting, but the legal mandate ends.
Guxim Zenelaj, a member of the Supreme Court, ended his legal mandate after completing the Veting forms. So it is not a resignation due to Wetting, but the legal mandate ends.
Arjana Fullani, a member of the Supreme Court, ended his legal mandate after completing the Veting forms. So it is not a resignation due to Wetting, but the legal mandate ends.
Besnik Imeraj, a member of the Constitutional Court, resigned shortly before the results of the Veting were released. He justified his resignation for “personal reasons”.
Adriatik Llalla, a former Attorney General, ended his mandate and waived his right to be appointed a judge in Appeal, shortly before the results of the Wetting process were published.
Fatos Lulo, member of the Constitutional Court. The Vetting Committee decided to dismiss him because of a lack of property. He has the right to appeal to the Appeals Commission.
