Journalist Klodiana Lala commented on today's dismissal of the General Director of the State Police, Gladis Nano.
She said in "News24" that she suspects that Gladis Nano has stepped on someone's skull, since she was not given time to complete the reform that she had started in the State Police, to clean the institution of corrupt officers and those connected to organized crime. .
" Mr. Nano stepped somewhere, in a neuralgic point that he was dismissed. If Nano had not fulfilled the objectives, did not the Minister of the Interior also fulfill the objectives? If the police is not cleaned of criminals and militants, the problem will remain the same for the police regardless of the name of the new director. For Mr. Nano, I thought he could bring a new spirit to the state police.
I thought that from the support coming from the internationals he could bring a change. But I was wrong, because I did not consider the Albanian politics, which cuts off the heads of those who try to rise above the parties. Despite the fact that there was some kind of security from the internationals, I forgot that politics for one's own interests puts international politics out of the game ", said Lala.
Lala's full reaction:
There have been debates, also related to the investigation related to Ervis Martinaj. I am inclined as a journalist to go beyond. We didn't get a chance to really see what Gladis Nano was capable of.
Before he was 11 months old, he had not completed the appointments of directors and the rotation in the police. He was in the process of finalizing the removal of crime-related and corrupt police officials. That we have facts. We have Jeton Lam who accompanied Ervis Martinaj. We had the serious incident where the police officer, while moving in a speedboat, hit a little girl in Potam. I believe Gladis Nano stepped on a callus somewhere. We have had very serious events before. Skerdilajd Konomi was killed and the General Director was not dismissed or resigned. We had cannabis in Mr. Chako's time, but he didn't leave.
Me thënë të drejtën unë mendoj se në mënyrë direkte apo indirekte mund të lidhet edhe me këtë pikë shkarkimi i Nanos. Nuk kam prova por unë dyshoj për këtë. Po të shikosh kemi nga njëra anë zhdukjen e Ervis Martinaj. Sapo flitet për zhdukjen e tij shkarkohet drejtori i Përgjithshëm i Policisë. Ka diçka përtej mënyrës sesi doli lajmi. Pati një arkitekt për mënyrën sesi po sillej me median për shkarkimin e zotit Nano.
Kam folur për dy emra por kryeministri është i pabesueshëm. Ai rezervon surpriza, siç bëri edhe në rastin e Presidentit. Por, emrat potencialë që janë në garë. Kandidati potencial është Muhamet Rrumbullaku, që mban gradën e duhur për të marrë drejtimin e policisë. Mendohet se mund të jetë sipas mendimit të Ministrit të Brendshëm që mund të shkëpusë lidhje e policisë me krimin e organizuar. Por unë mendoj se do të jetë shumë e vështirë.
Because, some time ago, a senior leader was appointed in the state police, but my colleagues and I received information that he was financed by a criminal group. Lorenc Panganika is the current head of the Tirana police. He is also known to the Minister of the Interior for having been a leader in Gjirokastër.
When Mr. Nano ran and was talked about as a potential name, I thought that he should take over the leadership of the State Police, Mond Rizaj. Although it has not been articulated publicly, there is a voice that Mr. Rizai, although quietly, is a potential candidate. I don't have the conviction, Riza's results over the years do. But whoever comes will find the state police in relation to the crime and the terrible balance of 48 victims in so few months./ BW
