Lawyer Ulian Barjami says he did not use any threatening or unprofessional words towards the prosecutor during the court session in Elbasan.
In a conversation with journalist Dafina Hysa on the "Breaking" show on Top News, Barjami said that it was the prosecutor who "took it personal" and spoke in the courtroom, saying "I will arrest him" for it.
"I did not use any threatening or unprofessional words. When the footage was opened, it was understood that there were inconsistencies. There were inaccuracies in what was reported. The prosecutor used the phrase "I will arrest him", apparently he took it personally. My actions were legal", declared Barjami.
The lawyer then explained how he had been detained at the initiative of the judicial police officer, a procedure that he said was illegal.
"I was called the next day by the judicial police officer, until that moment there had been no report. He called me and said I want to meet you regarding an explanation. I want to explain what the idea or meaning of this expression was. I explained to him what it really meant. Then I left and he communicated with me and said I would detain you with an order. It is an illegal practice, arrest on the initiative of the judicial police, only happens in the case of flagrante delicto. On the day of the detention, only my phone was seized, nothing else," he said.
