"Presents danger"/ Asked to leave the "41 Bis" regime,
Arber Çekaj

The Supreme Court has rejected Arbë Çekaj's request to leave the "41 Bis" regime. He will continue to remain in solitary confinement, even though, through a request on May 23, he opposed the decision of the Ministry of Justice to be placed in the regime, but this request was not accepted in the session held today in court.

GJKKO has described Çekaj as a person who presents danger, as a result he has been transferred to regime 41 'Bis' for at least 1 year. Çekaj was isolated on November 23, 2021 at the request of SPAK and approved by the Minister of Justice, Ulsi Manja..

Who is Arbër Çekaj?

The appeal of the Special Court against Corruption has upheld the sentence of 14 years in prison for Arbër Çekaj, the owner of the banana container caught with 613 kg of cocaine in the Port of Durrës. Arbër Çekaj was sentenced to 21 years in prison, but benefited from a reduced sentence and will serve 14 years in prison. Çekaj was convicted as part of the cocaine trafficking criminal group after he was caught with 613 kg of cocaine on February 27, 2018, which he had hidden on the floor of the banana container. In August, he tried together with Fatmir Pjetri to escape from prison 313, but this attempt was unsuccessful.

What is the special regime '41-bis'

The law on the special regime known as "41-bis" adapted by Italy has entered into force since January 2019, but its implementation has been delayed due to the lack of SPAK that was established only in December 2019. The "41-bis" regime is the position of a period of up to a year in a room monitored by 24-hour cameras, no meetings, no contact with the outside world, no right to a TV in the room.
