Lul Morina / Almer Toska

Journalist Almer Toska has faced threats and insults against his family after the publication of an investigative article regarding the suspected criminal activities of businessman Lul Morina. The investigation talked about Morina's connections to politics, the benefits obtained through construction permits by Belinda Balluku, as well as his suspected past as a drug trafficker and trafficking in women in the 90s.

Regarding the event, the head of the parliamentary group of the Democratic Party, Gazment Bardhi, also reacted.

"I condemn with the greatest force the mafia threats that journalist Almer Toska has received", says Bardhi, as he calls on the Prosecutor's Office to investigate the threatening messages against the journalist.

The full denunciation of journalist Toska and the threatening messages on his phone:

Public Notice and Denunciation

After the publication of the investigative article on businessman Lul Morina, where his criminal past as a trafficker of women and drugs, his connections with today's power and the benefit of construction permits thanks to political support from Belinda Balluku were proven, I was openly threatened. Morina has sent me insulting messages to my family and used blackmail language to intimidate me.

This action clearly shows that Morina has no argument against the published facts, but tries to silence the truth with threats. He acts as he has always done, with violence and arrogance, believing that his ties to power protect him from the law. But this is no longer a personal matter between me and him, it is a public matter that affects the entire Albanian society.

The State Police and SPAK cannot remain silent. If the open threats from a person with a criminal past are not enough to incite the actions of law enforcement bodies, then this country is hostage to the power mafia and traffickers who have turned into new oligarchs. Police silence means cooperation, delay in action means protection, lack of investigation means state capture.

Lul Morina is the clear example of how organized crime has been integrated into politics and the economy. From a trafficker in the 90s, he has today turned into a "successful businessman", buying votes for power and obtaining construction permits in exchange for his services. And today, he dares to openly threaten journalists and citizens just because they publish the truth.

I say it clearly: threats do not scare me and will not stop me. On the contrary, they are living proof that my writing has struck at the heart of the truth. This is the moment when the Police, the Prosecutor's Office and SPAK must show whether they are at the service of citizens or at the service of traffickers connected to power.

Albania cannot continue to be the place where traffickers become builders, where vote buyers become partners of the government, and where threats are treated as untouchable. Lul Morina must be investigated, punished, and stopped before his threat becomes a reality for anyone else who dares to tell the truth.

The law cannot be a weapon in the hands of the rulers, the law must be the protection of citizens. And if the Police and SPAK are silent today, tomorrow no one will have confidence in the state anymore.
