Eating pasta, with a glass of white wine on the table and wine bottles placed on the shelves behind his back, Arben Ahmetaj appears relaxed at the lunch with Italian journalists.
The latter filmed it with hidden cameras, where the former number two of the Government made strong accusations with allegations of the involvement of criminal groups in the governance of the country.
Concrete names were added to the statements and he repeated the accusations of how organized crime money was laundered in construction in Albania, or how he raised the problem of cannabis in the country in the Government.
But, did Arben Ahmetaj really fall into the trap of the Italians' hidden camera, or was he the creator, screenwriter and protagonist actor of this camera?
Is it a coincidence that the former official most wanted by Albanian justice is not only careless by not checking with journalists whether they were filming him or not during an informal lunch, but at the same lunch he speaks by name of people, who according to him are connected with organized crime and have they also met Edi Rama?
Is it a coincidence that in the hours before the show was broadcast on Italian state television, the Italian and Albanian media published details of Arben Ahmetaj's statements?
Why does the former Deputy Prime Minister appear in this investigation only a few minutes after a lunch that could have lasted for hours?
Do the Italian journalists have the full recorded conversation over plates of pasta and wine in front with Arbe Ahmetaj, or do they only have the part they broadcast?
Questions arise under the suspicions that the apparently hidden camera was not so hidden and Arben Ahmetaj was probably aware that it was being filmed, he was even the one who asked the journalists that the statements he was going to give were allegedly recorded on camera. secretly, while he later opened up in Tirana as if he was the victim of a journalistic trap.
The reason was to avoid conflicts with the names he mentions in the video recording, victimizing himself in front of them even though he was the main supplier of Italian journalists with the materials presented in the investigation broadcast on Sunday.
