The well-known lawyer, Idajet Beqiri, spoke about the case of Gërdec and Fatmir Mediu, which was sent for trial today. Among other things, he also told about Shkëlzen Berisha's benefit from the dismantling of weapons.
"It is good news that the part that was untried, Fatmir Mediu, the case was taken to court today and the special court will judge him for 'abuse of duty' even as a minister and according to the military code of the Republic of Albania. His case 321 was file number, she has gone to court now and Fatmir Mediu will be judged."
Albanians will say why only he was sent to trial?
"To reassure the Albanians, we tell them that the case has been divided, so file 321 is being taken, while file 321/1 has remained in SPAK and the investigations are continuing. They are only taking Fatmir Mediu as part of the first file. Gërdeci has been reopened and that file is being investigated in its entirety as to what happened and who was implicated in this crime. In this context is the testimony of the American journalist who is ready to testify and this is an important piece of evidence that will serve this trial. "
Why was it a criminal organization?
"Before the disaster happened, Shkëlzen Berisha, because he is the head of this crime, organized it at the beginning and brought in people to study the benefits of dismantling the weapons.
It was Shkëlzen Berisha and then with the help of his father Sali Berisha, sister Argita Berisha and with the help of people close to them and openly abusing their duties with the minister of defense and the minister of justice because these were the two main ones, they wanted to do and the finance minister for himself but they could not reach him.
So they studied it and found out that the profit from dismantling the weapons was 10 billion dollars, and after they gave you the exact figure, they invited people to do this business and do the dismantling", said lawyer Beqiri in an interview for Dritare TV .
