Prime Minister Edi Rama has criticized another judge, whom he says did not allow the removal of an illegal construction that blocked a passage between two buildings. The head of government says the judge in question did not stand by the community 'trapped' by the illegal construction.
" Judge Ligoraq decided in a few minutes without the presence of the parties, not to open the closed passage between the two buildings from this unauthorized building with a glass dome, under which a shop is located.
Judge Ligoraq probably did not see fit to side with the community trapped by this illegal construction, nor did he consider that, God forbid, in the event of a fire, this store would turn into a murderous barricade, insurmountable for both residents and firefighters.
Judge Ligoraq thus joins Prosecutor Gjeli, Judges Balliu and Demiri, in the file that the Ministry of Justice will forward to the bodies of control and self-government of the judiciary, while we will request that the complaints to these bodies be joined by citizens harmed by these absurd security measures, to the detriment of the community, the environment and the legal order.
Post Scriptum. To those who comment or make public statements about possible pressure from me on the judiciary, I say that in order to protect the public interest, the rights of the community and the rights and freedoms of people from abusers of office in the ranks of the judiciary, we will neither remain silent nor stop addressing cases of abuse in the relevant bodies which the Constitution and the law also charge with protecting the interests of the people and the state, by incompetent, irresponsible prosecutors and judges, both together or even worse, without a homeland at all,” Rama writes.
