"Eavesdropping was carried out in the Durrës detention center" -

Journalist Klodiana Lala revealed on the "Open" show on News24 that Tirana Mayor Erion Veliaj was subjected to environmental wiretapping in Durrës detention, saying that they were authorized by the Prosecutor's Office.

According to Lala, conversations were wiretapped not only with her brother, but also with other people. Lala further adds that based on these wiretaps, " the prosecutors have claimed in the courtroom that Veliaj could intimidate not only witnesses, but also jeopardize the collection of evidence."

The journalist also revealed the conversation she had with Veliaj's lawyer after today's hearing at the Appeals Court of Kosovo, regarding the new evidence of SPAK prosecutors against him.

" I had a telephone conversation with Mr. Ermir Beta. He was reserved about providing new details. As far as he said, I am not familiar with this new evidence. I will review it together with the legal team and then take an official position at tomorrow's session," said Lala.

It talks about contracts, invoices and bank transactions. It also talks about some trips.

What has been a surprise for the lawyers are some wiretaps. Veliaj was wiretapped in the Durrës detention facility. On February 12, the charges were communicated to him and on February 13, according to the order, Veliaj was transferred to the Durrës detention facility, where environmental wiretaps authorized by the prosecution were carried out.

Mr. Veliaj was wiretapped not only with his brother, but also with other people. According to the prosecution, these were attempts by Mr. Veliaj to intimidate investigators, but also special prosecutors and people of justice. It is a discreet matter and I need data to explain it further. But the fact that these are authorized wiretaps and were accompanied by concrete actions. The orders that Veliaj gave to third parties were implemented point by point, shows the fact that Veliaj may attempt to exert influence or pressure on witnesses and influence their will.

In this regard, prosecutors have claimed in court that Veliaj could intimidate not only witnesses, but also jeopardize the collection of evidence.
