Berisha Warns of 'Efforts to Close Investigations on Incinerators'
Former Prime Minister Sali Berisha has accused that efforts are being made to close the investigations into the incinerator affair, which he called "ridiculous and dangerous".
Berisha, in a media conference, added that Prime Minister Edi Rama "is most indisputably legally and criminally responsible for this affair".
"The attempt to close the investigation for the theft of the century is one of the most illegal, ridiculous and dangerous attempts.
And this, in fact, as you can see, propaganda, but not only propaganda, has the main purpose here.
The truth is that Rama is most indisputably legally and criminally responsible for this affair," said Berisha.
The former prime minister also listed 6 facts that prove, according to him, that "Edi Rama is the main legal responsibility of the theft of the century".
"In flagrant violation of the law, he just came to power, to pave the way for the theft affair of the century, he himself signed the declaration of the national environmental emergency and rejected the strategy created together with the EU. It replaced this strategy with that of waste incineration.
Edi Rama with his firm has approved, contrary to the law, the inclusion of the Elbasan incinerator in the medium-term budget.
Edi Rama is directly responsible for the government's decision of December 16, 2016, which decided to finance the illegal contract, signed with closed negotiations, prohibited by law. In his absence, he has authorized Niko Peleshi to sign this decision. But the signing of this decision in a record time of 12 hours is the signing of 12 acts with 17 signatures under the direct supervision of Edi Rama, so Arben Ahmetaj says 'I am not the king'.
Edi Rama is directly and primarily responsible for the theft of the century because he signed on December 7, 2017, granting the bonus of 8 points to the company 'Integrate Energy BV SHPK', a company that did not exist and that he was informed by the Minister of him that the company in question does not exist.
The TEC built 100% with the money of the state budget in the incinerator of Elbasan has been donated for 25 years to their private enterprise "AlbTek" from which the taxpayers receive only the concessional thread of 2% rule that this applies only in the case of concessions that are built entirely by the private sector.
Edi Rama is directly responsible for the theft of the century that in open opposition to Article 2 of Law 9000, on the functioning of the Council of Ministers, despite hundreds and hundreds of denunciations of the corrupt affair of the century in the media and parliament, he did not intervene, but on the contrary, he has become the advocate of the theft of the century because he is the main entrepreneur of the chilies," Berisha said.
