According to sources of albaniandailynews.com, the judicial panel has not yet reached a definitive decision and has deferred further discussions to a subsequent meeting. In the coming days, the court is expected to set the date for the next hearing, when examination of the case will continue.

The issue of judges’ salaries has also sparked a heated public debate involving Prime Minister Edi Rama. The prime minister has opposed the request for a salary increase, describing it as unprecedented.
