Erion Bani/ Edi Rama

The High Judicial Council has reacted after Prime Minister Edi Rama 's statements towards SPAK and GJKKO , regarding the case of the mayor, Erion Veliaj .

The Supreme Court's reaction:

The High Judicial Council has closely followed recent developments regarding statements made by persons in positions of power, executive or political, as well as certain media outlets, which affect the image and dignity of judges at the special courts for corruption and organized crime.

The Supreme Court of Kosovo holds the position that any attempt to violate the independence of the judiciary, through pressure or coercion of any kind, constitutes a direct threat to independence, democracy and the rule of law.

The Council, in fulfillment of its legal commitments, calls on all actors to avoid pressure in the form of statements, quotes or allusions that offend judges due to the exercise of their function.

In a state governed by the rule of law, the independence of the judiciary is one of the fundamental pillars for guaranteeing justice and protecting the rights and freedoms of citizens.

Judges must be free from any form of interference in decision-making, in order to exercise their duties in accordance with the Constitution and applicable laws.

The Council emphasizes that in a country that is fulfilling the criteria for EU membership, the only way to challenge a judicial decision should be through the exercise of legal remedies, by appealing to a higher court.
