Former PM Sali Berisha has reacted following the appointment of the new judge that will be reviewing an appeal made by DP\u2019s caucus leader Enkelejd Alibeaj.<\/p>\n
Alibeaj presented his case at the Court of Appeals, after disputing the legitimacy of the party\u2019s statute, adopted during an Assembly called by Sali Berisha back in December 2021.<\/p>\n
Through a post on his social media, Berisha argued that the statement made by the Court of Appeals, 2 hours before the draw which would select the new judge, only serves to prove PM Edi Rama\u2019s political interference in this case.<\/p>\n
In addition, the former PM accused the US ambassador Yuri Kim of an unlawful and anti-constitutional intervention.<\/p>\n
According to Berisha, Tirana\u2019s District Court hasn\u2019t given DP a copy of the final verdict made by Judge Blerina Muca, who returned the case for retrial.<\/p>\n
Berisha argued that this is a flagrant violation of the law of the land.<\/p>\n
Elona Toro will be the judge who will be in charge of Alibeaj\u2019s appeal. Toro was reported to have been appointed after a draw held earlier today.<\/p>\n
The draw also determined the other members of the judicial panel, namely Edlira Petri and Genti Shala.<\/p>\n
