DP's accusations of pardoning the corrupt, Manja: only 3 ex-policemen of
Ulsi Manja

The Minister of Justice, Ulsi Manja, says that 3 former police officers convicted for abuse of office in Kukës benefit from the criminal amnesty, and none convicted by GJKKO.

Iliri is married, has 7 children, was sentenced to probation. He is employed, he has returned to normal life and we will do our best to educate the 7 children. Since we are talking about amnesty, I brought the example of Iliri that one of the main principles of criminal amnesty is humanity.

It is done for amnesty for a category of convicts who have served 2/3 of the sentence. There has been a criminal amnesty in Albania for over 4 years. I'm sorry they didn't read the law. Someone threw a stone on the shingle and they all came together and said: O men, let's save the Republic.

It is a truncated amnesty. 95% of the criminal offenses in the Criminal Code are excluded from this amnesty. None of us had the intention of amnestying any person convicted by GJKKO. The reduction of the sentence due to the amnesty does not remove the stain. In the initial version, this amendment was not present. Benefit 3 was a convicted police officer at the border point of Morina.' - said Manja

Manja said that they are ready to sit down with the opposition and review this amendment.

" How many votes do you have? We will introduce it in the parliament when the opposition MPs are in the parliament hall and they will be the ones who will ask for it to be included in the agenda. We have done our duty, we filed the law three months ago. It is now in the plenary session, when they are ready.

I would ask and wish that this law receives the votes of all members of the assembly. We are ready to sit down for this amendment, but if there is a mistake for the opposition that they will benefit from a 1-year reduction in the sentence of 3 former police officers for abuse of office in Kukës, we will withdraw, it is not a problem ," said Manja.
