Prime Minister Edi Rama has no ill will towards the Administrative Court judge, Hazbi Balliu, for the decision related to the palace confiscated by the KKT. In another reaction on Facebook, the Prime Minister this time commented on the time it took the judge to make the decision, which he believes is wrong.
"It didn't take even 10 minutes for Judge Balliu to come out against the state and take the side of the plaintiffs who built an entire building without a permit, which was confiscated as such and given to the State Cadastre Agency. The materials that the institutions made available to Balliu require much more than 9 minutes to read, but of course the judge didn't even read them, because the fact that there were no victims in the old ASHK building, which was made unsafe by the earthquake, was enough for him. Thus, according to him, the work could continue under the falling ceilings, while the building without a permit... we'll see what happens," Rama writes.
It is a 6-story hotel near the Artistic Lyceum, where the government had planned to locate the State Cadastral Agency.
But, no matter how wrong a court decision may be, the state has only one path, the court. It's just that Rama, accustomed to giving orders for four terms and having others implement them, seems to forget that justice is not in his hands. The successive reactions, more than anything else, show the mania of a prime minister who, when he doesn't like the decision, turns it into a public spectacle. Because in Albania, even judges have a hard time escaping from their statuses.
