The State Attorney's Office reacts to the police intervention in the premises of News 24: The building contract has expired in May 2022, there are 3 court decisions for release!

The State Attorney's Office has reacted after the police intervention in the premises of News 24.

In fulfillment of its constitutional and legal mission to protect the interests of the Republic of Albania, the State Attorney's Office informs the public opinion on the progress and conclusion of the legal proceedings conducted with the "Fokus Media News" Company, regarding the state-owned premises near the former "Automotive Spare Parts Factory", in cadastral zone no. 8170, held without legal title for more than three years, after the termination of the lease contract.

Upon termination of the contract on May 22, 2022, the Ministry of Finance and Economy has officially communicated to the company the request to vacate the premises by July 25, 2022, in accordance with the contractual deadlines.

Despite this notice, the subject did not voluntarily surrender the property, but continued to hold it in violation of the law, initiating legal proceedings and requesting temporary security measures in order to prevent the execution of the obligation.

Since 2022, the case has been reviewed at all levels of the judiciary – the Court of First Instance, the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court – and has also included four decisions on security measures.

The most recent decision, dated July 14, 2025, issued by the Administrative Appeals Court with a panel of three judges, confirmed the obligation to immediately vacate the premises.

In this decision, the court emphasized that the company's media activity is not violated, as it only concerns work environments that can be provided in other spaces, owned or rented.

By Decision of the Council of Ministers No. 158, dated March 12, 2025, this property was transferred to the state-owned company "KAYO" sh.a., with the exclusive use of its purpose, in this case for the co-production of motor vehicles.

This strategic project aims to revitalize the local military industry, create jobs in the Shkoza area, and guarantee national and economic security interests.

Pending the aforementioned decision of the Administrative Appeals Court, state entities, including "KAYO" jsc, have not taken any executive action.

Now, with the final rejection of the private party's claims, legal procedures have continued for taking actual possession of the property, which are in progress and above, for the execution of the obligation determined in the court decisions and the release of the premises held after the termination of the contract.

The State Attorney's Office remains committed to pursuing every legal remedy available for the immediate execution of court decisions and the protection of state assets, as a non-negotiable obligation to citizens and the constitutional order.
