The appeal of the GJKKO has postponed the decision for the defendants of the AKSHI regarding the security measure. The decision will be announced on February 5th.
Former director Mirlinda Karçanaj was represented at the hearing by her lawyer.
Prosecutors Bledar Maksuti and Altin Dumani were present and requested that the previous measure remain in force.
The evidence had to do with some testimony that SPAK prosecutors received during this period.
The suspects are accused of acting as a structured criminal group and manipulating tenders through hostage-taking and blackmail.
The director of the National Agency for the Protection of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, Mirlinda Karçanaj, who is under house arrest, is accused of three criminal offenses: violation of equality in tenders, organized criminal group, and commission of criminal offenses by a criminal organization or organized criminal group. Her deputy, Hava Delibashi, is also charged with the same charges.
Against the suspended Deputy Director for Crime Investigation in the Tirana Police, Erion Ismaili, SPAK has filed charges of "illegal competition through violence committed in the form of a criminal group, a structured criminal group, as well as the commission of criminal offenses by a criminal organization and a structured criminal group."

Andis Pape, Gëzim Hoxha and Rogers Rryta have been banned from leaving the country and are accused of money laundering, a structured criminal group as well as the commission of criminal offenses by a criminal organization and a structured criminal group.
According to SPAK, these individuals, acting as a criminal group, have forced representatives of companies participating in tenders to drop complaints about certain tender procedures, paving the way for predetermined companies. The two businessmen Ergys Agasi and Ermal Beqiri are accused of having forced Gerond Meçen to withdraw from tenders at the National Agency for the Information Society (AKSHI) through hostage-taking and blackmail.
With the help of AKSHI leaders, the tender criteria were adjusted in such a way that Ermal Beqiri's companies won, while the group is suspected of laundering millions of euros.
