C: We are back after the commercial break at the third part of the fourth episode. Mr. Ahemtaj. Time has come to begin with the files and not only the analysis.
A: It is not that have done an analysis. We shared facts and we held a stand. Making analysis is up to a certain point even an inactive thing to do. We have been very direct. We’ve said that practically, Albania, today, is in the hands of organized crimes and cartels. The battle of Albanians is how to get their country back from the hands of cartels and organized crime and take it back where it should be. It is not that we have done an analysis. When it comes to Durres port, the file is huge, Mr. Peka. There are three: procedural, financial and legal.
C: The former Durres port or the Durres port?
A: The Durres port. Porto Romano. I am speaking of Porto Romano. To explain it for Albania. A FIDIC contract has been presented. What is a FIDIC contract, citizens will ask when they hear it. A FIDIC contract, Mr. Peka, is a contract without a ceiling. It is true that it begins with a limit fund, however by moving ahead, by having more work, by moving ahead, by having more work it is financed. It is very dangerous. And it is proven, as I have it here, that the project has notable gaps and verified by a memo that today is at the Durres port, signed by Kreshnik where all…
C: Signed by whom?
A: The Durres port.
C: The Durres port.
A: And the specialists. Or the project gaps are pointed out. Nevertheless, he was asked to proceed with the payments. This is one of the problems. Second, the designer, a Dutch company, I have it here and I’m going to read it later, has also become the project manager. It is Royal Haskoning. In which country of the world have you seen the functional duties which belong to the administration to be passed to the designers and the managers of the project? They’ve done it and they’ve also paid around EUR 13 million. Apart from that, there is conflict of interest with Acorns employees, which is an Albanian company which has been part of the design, then they are also employees and they are also part in the project management. Project design and project management. What does project management mean? I’m going to tell it to Albanians: they are going to decide who is going to be the winner. They access the system; they make the assessment. Meaning, the pass the government’s role to the private sector. This is a direct infringement of the procedural right of concessions… I’m sorry… of procurement. First. I do not want to tire Albanians. Second, which is very important… Albanians don’t know it but port has two phases. First is now, second is in 2060.
C: Is this in the contract?
A: It is in the plan. Practically, the port, which maybe… because I am going to mention a fifth point in the end, they maybe build it because the experts believe that it is sandy, it is very difficult, there is a very high cost, there are great flows despite the depth of 14 meters, they are filled quickly and considering that it is sandy, it is difficult to build there. Nevertheless, I’m not entering into such details because I am no specialist. I referred to what others have said. Practically, compared to the Vlora port, the existing port has 4 terminals and piers of 2000 linear meters in length. Okay? The new port will have a terminal with piers of 560 linear meters in length. Let’s not mention that the Durres port process 1.5 million passengers whereas the maximum of the new port will be 1 million passengers. 1 million passengers. Moreover, we are speaking of a risk which goes beyond the financial aspect. We are speaking of the risk of Albania remaining without a port. Why? Because Dubai Durres Port, Alabbar, is submitting official letters demanding the freeing of gate 4. However, if you free gate 4 today, Albania won’t have a port. Tomorrow, Muhamed Alabbar will have the right to go to the arbitration court and he will bury us. Because, according to his contract, we are not freeing him the space. I had a completely different stand about the structure of that part. However, this is the truth. The other problem is that expropriation has been performed for private interests, sold as public interest. Today, there is a concession, if though the contract hasn’t been signed yet, however the Lidl representatives are working there, it is a concession about a customs terminal, a customs warehouse with exclusive rights and automatic renewal, meaning indirect privatization of public assets. With the exclusivity that there’s not going to be another one in a 5km radius. Private individuals have been expropriated for the “public interest”, private individuals have been expropriated so Lidl does what is doing. You cannot do it now, according to the Customs Code, because there is no port. There is no port. Customs warehouse is not given as a strategic investment. You madman! You looter! You cannot give customs warehouse as a strategic investment. What do you want? Is the port your affair? You are usurping the port once and for good, so it is yours until you die? 35 years + 35 years? So, you unjustly inherit the property of Albanians? There are rumors about who is behind the expropriations done for Lidl’s interests. Let the journalists investigate that. Let SPAK investigate that.
C: Who is behind it, according to you?
A: I am not ANSA, nor 007. Here is the file, I’m going to giveit to you. I’m going to give you all the files. This is a scandal! The Lidl Customs Warehouse project is criminally using the law on strategic investments. It is equally criminal the way privatization is done so you give the public properties to the ones you want. I’m asking to all institutions who have power, if there any left, to stop it. To stop it! To stop it! Expropriated citizens have been damaged. The country is being damaged. A customs warehouse without having a port. Who is behind it? It’s very interesting. You’ll be impressed. Okay? In the very end… There are many details. I could take them one by one, one by one.
C: Let’s not do that because we also have other files.
A: Yes. It is this one here. I like showing it. I have done an investigation. I have done an investigation about who is behind it… and Albanians need to know it, Mr. Peka… We are speaking of a national asset which is critical infrastructure. The port is a critical infrastructure of the country. The difference between infrastructure and critical infrastructure… It’s like we are speaking of aorta. That’s the critical infrastructure. It’s like aorta. We’re speaking of Porto Romano which should turn into an economic pump for Albania. Thus, they’ve come to the conclusion with an offer and the financial offer has not been given yet. The one who has won the right to be alone is called Archirodon. Archirodon Construction Company Limited. I invite the investigative journalists to investigate what Archirodon is. They should ask Jonaid of Belinda and Taulant why? What are the stupid reasons why two of the biggest companies in the world were disqualified? One is a Dutch company. Okay, the Chinese one was disqualified because this is critical infrastructure…
C: It is clear…
A: I want critical infrastructure to be in the hands of…
C: Allies…
A: Of companies from NATO ally countries. This is the logic. The entire critical infrastructure needs to be open for competition within NATO countries. This is the logic, there is no point in having secret tenders. Go openly and say: I’m going to open public procurement about critical infrastructure and only companies from NATO member countries can participate. Period. He’s not doing it and he has excluded the French company, Vinci and the Dutch one which was in a group with Vinci. He gave it to NATO Archirodon. What’s the conclusion? If you see these links, which I am going to give them to you so you can investigate all of them please, there are 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. I’m going to pass them to you so you can see them one by one. Practically, you can see the direct Russian influence. There is direct Russian influence at a critical infrastructure. The head of the organization wants to play this game where he raises a toast here and there, because he is a big player. There is an interesting player here. Cymanco Services Limited. If you go there, this is like a secretary which connects you with LUKOIL Securities Ltd, which is property of LUKOIL OAO which has been sanctioned. Furthermore, there you can see… this is an investigation that will take you 2-3 hours. There you can a see a connection with a Russian citizen called Albert Avdolyan. Jota group in Cyprus is connected with Cymanco Group, which is connected with the Russian interests that I mentioned previously. I have printed this so you can see it, however I’m going to give you the entire file. We’re speaking of a fake process where companies from NATO member countries have been disqualified and there is only one company, Archirodon, established in 2017 and if I’m not mistaken, because I entered to see it… Give me a second. It was established in 2017 in Cyprus. Nevertheless, the head of the organization has insisted lately that they need to continue processes with this company. Why? Because I said it earlier on. He goes beyond shame, he goes beyond blame so Albanians get tired and lose hope and faith. Check it in everything. He takes something shameful and doubles down the shame. He makes a fool out of Albanians. He has the blame, he doubles down on the blame. He makes a mistake, he doubles down on the mistake. It is different in any democratic mind across the world. Of course, he’s been great in hiding it. I cannot tell somebody: good job in fooling people. Nevertheless, he has fooled us, good on him. So, we are speaking of a clear procedural and financial affair of critical infrastructure in the hands of third parties. This is risky for the court of arbitration and a risk without a ceiling. Okay? Who is going to deal with that? Petrit? Petrit is Bela’s Minister. Who is going to deal with that? You have 5 ministers there. I was mentioning that Nixon Peabody report. I sent it to Ulsi. He didn’t even read it. I don’t have hopes on the new one brought by Belinda, to the new justice minister.
C: I believe that he doesn’t know, even if he wanted to.
A: Yes. These are elements for which a finance minister lives for. He lives for such moments, to say: wait a second! Surely, Petrit has been put there by Bela. He was also made an MP, like “Ceno”. This is the Socialist Party. It is no longer the Socialist Party, but rather the “Municipality Party”. If you notice, everyone with previous Municipality connections have been pumped up, one by one. You can see that he has put aside the entire Socialist Party and he has appointed for Municipality employees. I’m asking about this. Two of the main issues is that this critical infrastructure can pass on to countries which are not our allies and yes, they can be a threat to us. Second, there is a very serious risk from the court of arbitration. Third, which is also huge, Albania can be left without a port. Albania can be left without a port. Here we are. We are not going to forget it. We are not going to forget it. I’ve spoken with many specialists, I have read the procedures and I have seen the notifications of Durres Dubai Port, Dubai Durres Port, no matter how it is called. Oligarchs work there. It’s not Alabbar building them. They’ve been contracted by Alabbar to build 3 blocks of apartments, 4 blocks, 2 hotels. Find me a place in Albania that he has not given to the one he wants him to give it to. Not even the occupiers have done such a thing. Not even the occupiers! This is the Durres port. This is alarming! This is alarming. It is a serious issue that the port is smaller. It is serious that it was done in such a way. It is serious that NATO member countries have been excluded. However, when it comes to having Russian influence, risking remaining without a port, risking going to the court of arbitration with Dubai Durres Port… I have said, whatever the looter has touched, is here.
C: I’m taking it.
A: You are taking it. It is a big file. Everything is detailed, even the technical elements. There are sheets.
C: There are experts working on them.
A: Let’s leave it here for now. Don’t be confused. Here it is. It’s yours.
C: Let me have it here because you never know. He said that he did not get 2/3. Let me have it here.
A: Okay… This is something very interesting about the small tunnel, in relation to the 324 apartments, the aircrafts and vessels. I promised you that I’m not referring to Altin. This is the last time tonight. I apologize if I am going to mention him once again to the public. When it comes to my case, I’m going to keep my respect as a prosecutor he is. Look here. Here are the payments done for Delina.
C: Hill International.
A: Hill International. I sent them to you today in the morning via email. You have them.
C: It’s clear.
A: Don’t say that you don’t have them.
C: No, I have them.
A: They were made for Delina who has now taken the role of Belinda. All companies now go to Delina. I have mentioned the reasons to the PM once when he was in PM in office. This is a payment for an activity held in Greece. Belinda, Rama and Delina. At least these are the ones I have. There are discussions about supervision. Hill International has taken over the supervision…
C: About Vlora Airport.
A: No, about the tunnel.
C: The tunnel. I’m sorry.
A: The tunnel. This is the supervisor of the tunnel that paid for their hotels. Mr. Dumani, with the same argument, he should also accuse Delina… Certainly Belinda, but as he tried to accuse me, he should accuse Delina because she has done reallocations. Why are you saying me that I have done reallocations, you have slept with your wife and you have done reallocations. According to standards, Mr. Dumani, you also need to persecute Delina on corruption too. Right? Through this evidence here. He also won a tender. He paid for the PM, Delina and Belinda. You have it here. Okay? You take it but it has no value. We are staying at the critical infrastructure. Do you recall when I once told you about Ergys Agasi going to Abu Dhabi and Davos with the PM? What does he want? It is very easy for SPAK, if it wanted to, but of course they don’t want to… they can just trace the mobile phones. They would see that Rama has spent more time with Ergys Agasi than Ministers, excluding the “looting ministers”. He has spent more time with Ergys Agasi. This is what I am saying to Albanians when it comes to Smart Cities. There is a debate registered. It is possible for SPAK to have it, if it is not cleared. It is between the former Minister of Interior and Ergys Agasi related to Smart Cities. They have it.
C: When they were together in Abu Dhabi?
A: They were in Abu Dhabi for the selection of the companies. It is about the visit of a former Minister of Interior to select an X company. There are many details here. First, I would like to mention that the sum sent to the organization began at 60 and reached 140. I would like to tell Albanians…
C: 140 what?
A: USD 140 million loan from Abu Dhabi given to a company from Abu Dhabi without a tendering process. His projects, the ones that he likes, are close himself and he gives them wherever he wants, he surely gives them to companies without a tendering process. This is the case of “Smart Cities”, which is not “Smart Cities”. It is “Safe Cities”. It is “Safe Cities” and “Safe Cities” has failed several times. One concern for the citizens, which they can share with one another: our data, our facial recognition and vehicle registration plates, how can they access by a country which is not a NATO member? If I were cynical, I would say that I’ve nothing against Gulf countries. I respect them a lot for the work they are doing but when it comes to critical infrastructure, I want it to be managed by a company from a NATO member country. They can be processed by a country which is not a NATO member. It even needs to be a certified company. These are the data of Albanians. The data of Albanians are a treasure. We do not have weapons or uranium. Okay? How are you going to let the critical infrastructure to a company from there because that’s what the head of the organization wants. He recently went there together with members of the gang, he made a deal there about how they would act, he got some money from Abu Dhabi with 4% interest rate, because that’s what he wants and he gives it to whomever he wants. I’m going to pass to costs. This is the first problem. It is critical infrastructure. Second, it is the cost. The costs are 6-7 times more because of some items. This is a habit of his. When he wants to reach somewhere, he initially promotes items. For example, when he wanted for all cities to supply the Tirana incinerator, if you recall, there were different TV shows and news about wastes in Durres, wastes here and there.
C: Yes.
A: This is a habit of his. Certainly. As he pushed in one TV station, the battle against Fatmir, the battle against Erjon and then the battle against Ditmir, then against Damian then against me. This battle against me lasted 2 months, the battles with the others lasted a week. The cost, Mr. Pekaj, you have them here. The costs are really 6-7 times higher. Let me tell the Albanians what is going to happen. There are 2,239 cameras of a certain technology. I’m telling the specialists and the ones dealing with national security, have a look at the technology here because it could be hostile technology. Hostile technology. I believe the security specialist understand what I want to say. Investigate it. Maybe it is not this way. I do not want it to be this way. I don’t want critical infrastructure in the hands… If I were cynical, I would say Mr. Peka: it would be better to be in the hands of the Arabs than the hands of criminals as it is today. How many people have put their hands in the Tims’ portal? What has SPAK done? I laugh when I hear people saying that they will take a case to SPAK. Why are you going to send it to SPAK? If it reaches SPAK, it gets buried, they deal with “tiles”. Now when it comes to costs, there are almost 5,000 pillar cameras and 3,816 body cameras. These body cameras with the addition made, so Albanians know, the cameras included within the system, USD 15,723…
C: USD 15,000 for body cameras?
A: Yes. Associated with the system. This is madness. Albanians will pay for that USD 15,723 for a body camera. Madness! There are two more elements here. Do you recall that the police once upon a time had body cameras?
C: Yes.
A: A considerable number. Back then, it cost EUR 5.7 million back at Tahiri’s time. EUR 5.7 million. Now half of the fund goes to body cameras alone. Don’t forget that the World Bank has given around USD 70 million for traffic monitoring. Don’t forget that every Municipality has invested in Smart Safe Cities. What is this project for? For himself? What for? To whom is he going to give it to? Where do companies go to? He removed the Deputy Minister. This is violence. That’s how he uses them and good to them. He never used me. I’ve never been used by him. Surely, he was waiting for me and gave the gun to Altin. Nevertheless. Xhemal goes and signs them because Albana didn’t accept to do so because through this document you end up in prison tomorrow. He leaves, because he is untouchable.
C: Who has signed for it?
A: Xhemal Qefalia. He was appointed deputy Minister.
C: Deputy Minister.
A: I think that’s him. Can I say another amazing thing please? Look at this because it’s great. The police surveys everything. It is on May 18, 2022. Look at this. 800,000 euros for the network that connects business cameras. Why is spending again money from state budget? Again, and again and again. Or these are Belinda’s calculations, 52,000 euros for a road camera?
C: 52,000 euros for a camera?
A: 52200 euros for a camera. Including the system. That’s what Albanians are paying for a camera. 52,000 from one side, 15000 for another body camera on the other side. I’ve said it to AKSHI. The cost is 7 times higher. Why are you investigating it? Didn’t I ask Albanians to investigate at Gaxho? I did an investigation at Gazheli. The great Gazheli. I’ve done it. Do you want to have a look?
C: Yes.
A: Cost that increases by 7 times. Okay. Here you have it. I was given this by Gaxho, not Gaxho directly because he would rather kill himself that give me these. Gaxho wakes up and sleeps with fear from the organization. Nevertheless, I analyzed data from the customs in the last 10 years. EUR 50 million systems of this kind have been imported with a quantity of a million security devices and equipment. In the meantime, Edi Rama is buying around 800 equipment for USD 140 million. These are facts. They are not made-up things. They are from the customs system. Here you have it. Here you have it. In the last 10 years, there are a million security devices and equipment which cost around EUR 50 million. When he goes and says that a spectacular work has been done, he makes a fool of Albanians. He insulted the people from Dibra during elections. He has insulted Albanians. He told them: You are retarded, he told the people from Dibra. He insults Albanians with such things. He has done spectacular work. Why? Because the entire budget and system is in the hands of organized criminal groups? That’s why’ve done work? What are you afraid of? Are you afraid because your turn has come? There’s no stay staying eternally at the sky especially when you have exceeded any limit. Even if I were in prison or even know that I am not, even if I were dead or now that I am alive, the issue is with yourself. The heritage is his. His heritage will be organized crime and cartels. It is the PM that planted, bloomed, created, internationalized, nationalized, enriched the organized crime and drug cartels. Dear Albanians, look here. This is it. Let’s see it. There is no manual. I’m going to give it to you, for sure. My discussions with AKSHI when was Finance Minister were: first, we need long-term planning. Second, there needs to be a real manual, so the prices don’t increase 7 times. One more thing, as we are speaking of critical infrastructure and AKSHI. Because he skipped it. Can you tell me how it is possible that Mr. Dumani is not investigating within the same criminal structure the kidnapping of Daniel? Are the fooling the Albanian people? How is it possible? Daniel was kidnapped after Gerond was kidnapped.
C: After Gerond testified to Dumani, at SPAK.
A: It is strange. If I were in his place I wouldn’t dare, because one day it would become known. It is the same as the other SPAK prosecutor who said: we don’t know who it was, but it wasn’t the brother of PM. If the partners lose their attention from SPAK, you are going to listen to such phrases. Relentlessly. For some of the biggest files in the world, 16,000 and even 160,000 pages if you want. A very small one. The Llogara tunnel almost passed the statute of limitation. For a month. For a month.
C: In fact, it was only one week.
A: For a week. Here you have it as well.
C: Let’s continue.
A: There, you also have road monitoring. A camera, together with the system, costs EUR 52,000. 52,000! It’s the same structure. There is a tendering process which gets cancelled. Then it is a Turkish partner, then, then, then… it is the same structure. There is no tendering process which has not been oriented. There’s no such tender. This is another funny thing. This is an invention. This is the Kayo project. I believe that you know it that Kayo is the military industry company. This is not an industrial project, dear citizens.
C: Ron Yeffet?
A: We’re going to come to Ron Yeffet. This is a financial project. Kayo is not going to producing anything, however I want to show you their journey, so you understand what’s happening with our country and the head of the organization. Okay. In July 2024, Law 88 was prepared. Kayo company was established as state-owned enterprise with 100% of shares. The scope was the production and trade of weapons, ammunition and military equipment. On paper, this was a project about the modernization of defense industry. Okay? In practice, this was the formal basis for the establishment of a mechanism which gives the government the opportunity to use public property as private commercial capital. This is beyond any parliamentary supervision. So, immediately after Law 88, there were a series of DCMs. I have them here and I’m going to give you the file. DCM 280, DCM 281. Elira Kokona fabricated them. She took them and bent them so they would reach what the head the organization wanted. The extension of the scope of work of Kayo beyond the law of its establishment, something which is not allowed. This turned it from a military producer to a commercial operator with a private partner. They allowed the use of public military land, buildings, depos and infrastructure as contributions to the private entity. They overlooked the public procurement law. They overlooked it by giving Kayo the possibility to choose a partner with direct negotiations. Where have you seen such a thing? Where have you seen it? If this was the case, any country would bend and use its public property through a company established and then this company… No! State-owned companies have responsibilities based on public laws of auditing, privatization, and management. The public companies are not private companies. In private companies, if the main partner or director wants something, they can do it. Such a thing cannot happen with a public company. They cannot do it. They removed any obligation on transparency, competition and public financial reporting. Since this moment, it has turned into a means of embezzling national public property. Okay? What happens next? DCM 322 changes… I’m tiring the citizens however they need to understand…
C: No…
A: I want them to get the essence of how rotten things are. From 100% it goes to 45%. Afterwards, from 45% it goes to 20%. State loses its veto right, State Supreme Audit can longer audit such a company, public property becomes private capital without any privatization procedure. Okay. Private companies under the Kayo umbrella receive military contracts without a tendering process. The essence is that the same person who has been a partner of Air Albania, the same Ron…
C: Yeffet.
A: The same Ron Yeffet. The same person to whom the head of organization wanted to give him our embassy in New York. The same person whom he tried to give the public debt, and I refused to do so. Now, he gives him, by making him the key private partner, at Kayo. Kayo is a corruptive affair. It is a corruptive affair. Only a perverse mind… He says: my white heart and my good mind. What suits him is: my black heart and my perverse mind. Even though he refers to himself. He has lost touch with reality, no question about it. The state has been totally captured; there is danger about the military as well as embezzling public funds and budget. Apart from that, as I told you earlier, this is a financial project which goes beyond public procurement law and public financing auditing law. Moreover, through Kayo, the road has been paved for cooperation Elbit Systems. This is an Israeli company which is under investigation by NATO and Belgian authorities for corruption in military contracts. Let the journalists investigate that because I’m not ANSA, nor 007. As Altin says, I am subject to international arrest warrant. He goes to Parliament, he shouts to the ones in opposition, he pampers the government. This company has been involved in Albania through the project financed by public funds, that of civil aviation academy. The civil aviation academy in Vlora. The aviation academy is without aviation, but rather a single helicopter. We are speaking of the terrain and the asset because he has a private airplane, when it comes to aviation. Kayo gets public infrastructure, funds and state guarantees while Elbit gets control over technology and profits. Let journalists investigate that. Let them investigate that. Do you what’s interesting here? What’s interesting is that they’ve changed the commander of ground forces about a month ago. They’ve appointed somebody who has ties with a family friend. Somebody who has been mentioned very often in the media. It is the brother of the friend. This is no coincidence. One day when journalists aren’t going to be able to investigate that… Do you know why? Because Kayo funds are at the item of the Defense Ministry, at the ground force. They want and they are wasting people’s money with Ron Yeffet. Where did they find Ron Yeffet? What for? Without a race. He is going to get things without a tendering process. What for? So Edi Rama embezzle money from the public funds? And I am subject to international arrest warrant… There was a period he used to say: he is subject to international arrest warrant. We don’t comment on that. No, you want something, and I want something else. The “cuckoos” who are impressed: he is subject to international arrest warrant, we don’t comment on that.
C: Let’s leave them aside. Let’s speak about theft.
A: How we can we leave them when they continue? Allow me to tell you a joke. The ones who know it will laugh, whereas this will turn into a political anecdote. One second please. There is an anecdote about “cuckoos” said by the Mayor of Pogradec Municipality. The anecdote is about the goat that was waiting at the carriage in the morning. That’s why I mentioned the “cuckoos”. He is the one who has invented this political anecdote and he says that. The Pogradec Mayor. Okay? I’m not mentioning his name because he gets scared.
C: It is known who the Pogradec Mayor is.
A: Who is it?
C: The one who is. I don’t recall him. I don’t know the names of the ministers.
A: Look, when comedians and journalist start looking for this joke about the goat at the carriage in the morning, they are going to understand what I mean by “cuckoos”.
C: Let us search for money first…
A: Money? It has been 14 billion in the last few years.
C: I apologize.
A: As you can see, they have appointed the commander general of the ground forces to control the money. As I told you earlier, what’s the point of having Yeffet in the Republic of Albania, if not only of his friendship with PM. He can do business by passing through open competition. Surely. Here you have Kayo. Okay. There is Thumane-Kashar highway. This highway has serious issues. I’m not going to tire the citizens with too many details about the Thumane-Kashar highway. First, it was given willingly. Everything has changed from the first contract in violation to the court decision that I have allowed. Costs have increased. The burden has increased on the back of the citizens. This is a concession given to whomever they fancy, in a way they fancy by PM and the looter. I have details from the decision of the court of appeal. They did not authorize a new contract, they authorized negotiations whereas the first contract never entered into force. Why? Because he wanted to alter things. Today, the contract deadline has changed, the economic model has changed, source of income has changed, budget guarantee has changed, from 0 it has increased, the rate of return is 7.6 from 8.11. The fundamental terms and conditions have changed in violation of article 31 of the law. There are shadows of doubts beyond what has happened with the people involved. I’m not going to connect things. When it comes to the citizens, auxiliary roads have been removed from the investment. Another fact… The first basis contract and the obligation required for road alignment to not be used. The road alignment is not used, because the cost is not the same and at the end of the day, you are constructing a new road. They used the alignment. I’m not precise here, but it is between 8-11kms of the old road that was used, and it shouldn’t be this way. This was a condition. Citizens are paying more.
C: Auxiliary roads have been removed.
A: Auxiliary roads have been removed.
C: The road alignment shouldn’t be used.
A: Here you have it. Take it.
C: This has been signed by Balluku?
A: Yes. There is another new invention now. It’s called Durana.
C: What’s this?
A: What’s this?Durana is a technological park…
C: Within a year he has worked more with documents, Mr. Ahmetaj, than you when you were Minister…
A: How do you know how much I worked when I was a Minister, Cim? I went home at 11 o’clock at night. You can ask.
C: There are so many files… Or they have stolen more…
A: This is just the tip of the iceberg. That’s why he wants me dead. That’s why he curses and anathematizes. Surely. I’ve never been used by him. It would be great shame if he had protected me. Today, this would be my greatest shame. I would be protected by a person who has turned Albania into a playground of drug cartels. A playground of drug cartels. There are no medications for the oncological hospital there. 50 million here, 250 million there, the Eden’s garden because he wants to live… Wait a little bit, Mr. Peka. I want to speak with the citizens too because I know that you are going to get them and…
C: No, what is it about?
A: Durana… I’m not entering into details about how much funds it took, it should be a park, as the law implies. Law 58 of 2022 explicitly says what a technological and scientific park is: It is a defined surface of land and or buildings which through DCM is declared a park and enjoys a special status of economical and financial meaning in the meaning of free economic area according to the customs code. Hence, the park needs to have geographic boundaries, it needs entrance and exit points, and it needs the functioning of the customs point. It is at Xhafzotaj. Now, I’m going to be brief about it. Why has it been used? It has been used to lie to Albanians that a group of companies will not pay taxes, all the companies tied with the government. There are 46 companies who have received authorization. I invite Albanians to go to Xhafzotaj to see whether this park exists or not. It is a virtual park. The law doesn’t say a thing about virtual parks. So, you register your address at Xhafzotaj, your headquarters are actually in Tirana and you don’t pay taxes. This is a fraud towards Albanians. Here you have these companies. Here you have these companies. This is a virtual model. Here you have them. It is the same companies. Look here Cim, aren’t they the same companies…
C: I’m going to read them when I receive them.
A: tied to the government? Aren’t they? Here you have the list of companies. I’m giving it to you. I’m going to show this list to Albanians. Because they say that it is someone paid from all sides. Here’s the list of those who profit by tax exemption. They are connected with AKSHI. Most of them are part of criminal groups. You have them there in detail.
C: I see all of them.
A: All of them. They paid 0 tax. They lied to Albanians. There are no money for oncological hospital. No. There is no money for pensions. No. 50 here, 50 here, 250 there, 300 here, Ron will take some, X there will take something more, end then Lidl becomes a geographical, strategic, logistic force at the new Durres port. What is left for Albanians? Just stop at the road and pay the toll for the road cost and the port cost. Let me arrange things, Mr. Peka. Durana was the last invention…
C: 40 businesses…
A: Durana is the last invention of Elira together with the head of the organization. Here it is. This is Durana. Here, have it. Let them investigate it.
C: We are going to investigate it.
A: I don’t want such things. The fewer, the better. I don’t want to be right. Okay… I almost forgot. It’s very interesting when compared with all the rest. According to this standard, Mr. Dumani should have accused everyone in the photos. They are not Ben Ahmetaj, the enemy of the “head”. Look here. Okay. Here is the combination for one of the secret tenders where Igli Tafa gives “FIRST” 15 million, partially, according to Open Data, because there can be more but I didn’t manage to look at it. A secret tender on cybersecurity to a company which has been practically accused by SPAK, not the company but the person accused of being part of a structured organized criminal group. The contract is 07/10/2024, the partial payment says contract 4837. Just to have it. This is one of the photos. The other picture… When they made the Durana Law… here you have Elira Kokona with Ermal Beqiri, the promotion of “Cloud”. At the company list… Mr. Peka give me please the company list…
C: Yes.
A: There are two companies of Ermal Beqiri here. At Durana. He promotes it, he utilizes it…
C: Two companies of Ermal Beqiri. Right.
A: Here you have this as well. Here you have the association with Ermal Beqiri as its head. I am showing it to Albanians just to illustrate it to them. He promotes this man, who has submitted AKSHI, for his personal private garden. Look here at the promotion. Such a thing was done by Ermal Beqiri. The association. He gives them tenders, they promote him. Do you get it? This has no value because it is the Municipality of Tirana once upon a time. It has no value. I took them out for illustration, because according to SPAK standards, all of them need to be accused. According to Altin’s standards, not SPAK’s standards. The standards against me. The last one is not important right now. He demolishes someone’s house. He demolishes someone’s house. He demolishes someone’s hotel. He demolishes someone’s business. He puts someone in prison. Okay? He expropriates land of some private individual with 2.9 million and gives it to Kayo. In the meantime, here I have an official letter to show you that whenever I went there, first I didn’t accept. Whenever I left, the opposite happened. Here is an official letter where I directly stated about the Bankers, the 140 million. I’ve said it, so Albanians know it because they “devise” things, some of them within the Fier Prosecution who were under the vetting influence, the political leader, and so on, and so forth. Do you know what my official letter says? Here you have the protocol number.
C: What does it say?
A: Let’s read it. This is at the end of 2016. In implementing the excise tax law, since April 1, 2014, there is no exception for the fuel used as solvent in oil extraction processes. The obligations are later acquired and so on and so forth. Then, here you have two official letters. I don’t know how Anila Denaj has done it because to be honest, I never thought about it, they have been suspended the meeting of 120 with a request of Belinda Balluku. Belinda Balluku in her official letter violates… and in complete abuse of office, let’s not say beyond that… it says… There is an interpretation of the law and it says in the letter of 2019, in April, I see April 8 here. The protocol number is 502. I’m going to give you the letter. It says and it’s not allowed for the Minister of Infrastructure: in this concrete case, the solvent is not used as fuel nor combustible material. It does not interpret the law, the technological processes. The technological processes are part of the manual. Especially considering that the excise tax law prevails over any law. It says: no, excise tax is implemented. Solvent is added in the oil. Oil together with solvent comes out. A liter of solvent and 2 liters of oil were added. I’m explaining it so we understand the logic. In the end we have 3 liters of liquid combustion material, meaning excise tax will be implemented. Because this is how much they have used. This is a simple explanation. However, who is going to explain it from the technical point of view?
C: When is excluded from the excise tax?
A: Here, it says that it is excluded from the excise tax. They impose it over the administration, and the customs administration should not have accepted Anila’s order on suspension. What happens? He demolishes houses at Theth. He exempts oligarchs from outstanding taxes at 5%. My stand has been: if some of the businesses want to declare in their self-cleansing processes assets and liquidity in their balance sheets, they need to pay 50%. What about those who have regularly paid their taxes? What are they? You go and demolish houses in Theth. You put into prison people about minor things. Here, you go and relief from tax 100, 200, 300, 400, 500… Armos is relieved by 40. By 40… Let the journalists investigate it. I am not 007. Here you have them too. Surely, SPAK works mostly against me. I am the enemy. Here you have the files of denouncement cases. There’s risk for Albania to be left without a port. There’s risk for Albania’s military budget to pass in the hands of Ron Yeffet or others. There are tax exemptions, embezzlement of tax budget, “Smart Cities” which is not “Smart Cities” bur it is “Safe Cities” and costs have increased by 7-8 times repeatedly. Money through like water in the sand. That’s his philosophy. Let’s act like we have technological elements here because they have no clue about it. Did I tell you the last time to go and investigate the customs cost? If they are not 7-8 times here, they can say that I’m lying. The issue is not whether I am lying or not. The issue is on the truth.
C: Look, I’ve been doing TV shows for 20 years and I’ve never had such a long interview in which I intervened that little. This is an auditing of corruption of a country. There have never been more details than today and a better expertise… I’m not saying it because Mr. Ahmetaj is here, however he used to Deputy PM and Minister of Finance. He is a person who has worked with the auditing of pyramid scheme firms. He is a person that up to a certain degree taught Edi Rama how to “play cards”. He has admitted it himself. You have files. Files, Files, Files, Files, Files, Files that have been audited, explained and published by Mr. Ahmetaj tonight in this interview and they have a person behind them, which is the face of the beneficiary, PM Edi Rama. An interview of almost 3 hours. I would like to thank Mr. Ahmetaj. I believe that you will be ready whenever I think that there are developments, you will be available for interviews.
A: Allow me to say a closing paragraph.
C: Of course I’m ready because we spoke about providing details about one of the deposits in which the greatness madness that you have heard of… State Supreme Audit reached a conclusion about expired drugs, the lack of drugs which lead to death of people because somebody over here wants to have fund with 50, 250, 350, 450 and 1 billion. More than 300 apartments, 2 yachts, etc. I am very sorry about the relation with my compatriots. Former colleagues of mine who today are the elite of the Socialist Party that no longer exist. One of them should have gone public. It’s a shame. One of them should have gone public and told him: Sir, to whom are you saying spectacular work has been done. Just one! Just one real one! There is no greater shame for me! I spent my life there. I’ve been 25 years there. I was there before Edi Rama. I was before Edi Rama. I am a “December student” with the courage, stupidity, smartness of that time. I am the employee of Fatos nano and Ben Malaj. I finished with the pyramid schemes with them. I even risked my life. Yes. I worked even for the earthquake, for the people who were homeless. I decreased the deficit. I have done many things. The head of the organization is spending three years searching for me. He is searching for me, where I am. I am very sad. Cuckoos have targeted me. “He is subject to international arrest warrant.” In the meantime, they do not deal with the “carcass” that has been done. The Albanian body has been cancerized. It needs chemotherapy. It needs chemotherapy. For chemotherapy, they need to refer to one of the amendments of the US Constitution: when the government is against the people, the people take their fate in their own hands. It is written in their Constitution. He should not make a fool of Albanians and tell them: “We have done an excellent work. We have stolen 100. You are retarded. You people of Dibra. You are “dump”. You are baklava makers. You make tins.” This man with the punchlines. This is not Albania. I’m also sad about something else related to my life because I believed him and I worked hard. I worked the most for Albania, however it is a great disappointment because my life has been zeroed when it comes to the objectives I had set for the country.
C: Mr. Ahmetaj, thank you!
A: Thank you!
C: Episode 4. We are going to be here. Good night!
