After being overturned by the Constitutional Court for the unconstitutional and antidemocratic suspension of a member of the government, before the ink on the Constitutional Court's decision had even dried, the prosecutor in question is asking the Assembly for authorization to arrest the Deputy Prime Minister - in prison or at home.
It is universally known that arrests without trial, sometimes at home, sometimes in prison, have become a rude fashion in Albania, and that Albania has become a country with more pre-trial detainees than prisoners - a shameful fact with no connection to European democratic standards - which has seriously concerned even the Council of Europe.
But of course, in the case in question, we cannot and will not prejudge the special prosecutor's request, but since unlike other processes, where we as a rule do not speak about the content of the cases, this time we are asked to give our opinion, we will engage with all our responsibility before the Albanians who gave us 83 mandates, and we will prepare to maintain a fair, clear and worthy stance, as the leading force of the country and of Justice Reform.
