The political leader of the Democratic Party in Fier Region, Gazment Bardhi, has denounced to SPAK Belinda Balluku, the minister of the Socialist Party who is also the political leader of the SP in this region.
Bardhi says that thanks to citizens' denunciations, he has secured a list of hundreds of names, who are promised jobs in exchange for securing votes for the Socialist Party.
"To illustrate with an example from this list, without damaging the investigative secret: "Citizen S.Ll., with a pedagogy education, previously employed at Albpetrol, chairman of the Socialist Organization at Voting Center 2983/1, seeks employment at DPSHTRR or director at the Municipality." The database also records the message left for employment or the fact whether or not the person has brought the electoral employment documents," says Bardhi.
Full denunciation:
Today I submitted to SPAK irrefutable evidence of electoral corruption by Belinda Balluku and her electoral gang in the Fier region. I would like to express my gratitude to the honest socialists of the SP Headquarters who report the violations because they cannot accept electoral crimes as a way to maintain a degraded government.
A complete list of hundreds of names, generated by the electoral headquarters of the Socialist Party, in which, in addition to the name, patronymic, surname, the voting center, education, previous employment, position in the SP structures or engagement in the campaign, as well as the promise to be employed in a position in the state administration or the workplace where the person has been appointed in this election period, are noted.
To illustrate with an example from this list, without damaging the investigative secret: “Citizen S.Ll., with a pedagogy education, previously employed at Albpetrol, chairman of the Socialist Organization at Voting Center 2983/1, seeks employment at DPSHTRR or director at the Municipality.” The database also records the message left for employment or the fact whether or not the person has brought the electoral employment documents.
In this specific case, we are facing the consumption of the criminal offense of "Active Corruption in Elections", in the form of promising jobs or employment to support the Socialist Party and its candidates, for which the Criminal Code provides for a prison sentence of up to 5 (five) years.
SPAK has a golden opportunity to prove how serious the strategy and the Task Force it has set up to combat electoral crimes are, by carrying out today the identification and arrest of the persons responsible for this criminal scheme, starting with the political leader of the Socialist Party for the Fier region and each of her subordinates, part of the electoral gang, which has turned Fier into a place of major corruption and flagrant illegality for several months now. So far, unfortunately, SPAK, apart from announcements about the opening of an office or the donation of several computers by the OSCE, has not shown any real commitment to crack down on electoral crimes that are being committed before everyone's eyes every second in the Fier region.
This case proves that Edi Rama, Belinda Balluku and the Socialist Party have not only not given up on crime and electoral corruption, but have already raised it to another level, directly buying the will of Albanian citizens. Some with cash, others with permits and licenses, others with legalizations or property certificates, others with jobs, somewhere with criminal pressure on businesses, and someone else with pressure from criminal groups. Anything and everything to maintain the power corrupted by corruption and to make rotation impossible.
But, Edi Rama, Belinda Balluku, the Director of ALPETROL, the Director of Taxes and every one of their servants in corruption and illegality should know today that they will receive exemplary punishment for all their acts, while no maneuver can stop the great change that has begun across the country for a Great Albania.
