Who is really hiding behind the properties in Ksamil?
The murder of a 20-year-old tourist has brought attention back to Ksamil, one of the most coveted areas of Albanian tourism. But beyond the recent chronicle of luxury hotels, resorts and beaches that are promoted every summer, Ksamil hides a much older and more lucrative story: the story of property.
Who owns Ksamil today? How were the large owners of a territory once dominated by state property created? How did large areas of land pass into private hands and who are the beneficiaries who appear at the end of the chain?
One of the main names in this story is Rrahman Selmanllari.
" Pamfleti " previously reported that Selmanllari became the beneficiary of an area of up to 137 hectares of land in Ksamil, through a history of ownership accompanied by four court decisions issued during the years 2006-2009 by former Saranda judge Petrit Aliaj.
This is not about a few suburban plots, but about 1.37 million square meters of land in one of the areas that today has among the highest property values on the Albanian coast.
According to data, the story begins with about 250 thousand square meters, or 25 hectares, while the known area later expanded to 137 hectares, including the area known as "Teqeja e Zallit".
At the center of the legal process is the name of Petrit Aliaj.
Four consecutive decisions of the Saranda Court during the years 2006-2009 changed the property map. “Pamfleti” reported that disputed property documents were used in the process as forged and that through court decisions the recognized area was expanded several times.
But Selmanllari is not only interesting because of the extraordinary area of land that appears in this story.
His name has been publicly linked for years to Shkëlzen Berisha, the son of former Prime Minister Sali Berisha.
"Pamfleti" has repeatedly reported on the close relationship between Selmanllari and Shkëlzen Berisha, raising suspicions that behind some of Selmanllari's economic and property interests may lie interests related to the former prime minister's son.
The very period when the decisions on the lands in Ksamil were made makes this connection even more interesting to investigate.
The main decisions on ownership were made during the years 2006-2009, during a period when Sali Berisha led the government and Shkëlzen Berisha was one of the people with considerable influence in the government at the time.
This coincides with the period when Rrahman Selmanllari appears as one of the businessmen closest to Shkëlzen Berisha.
Therefore, the question that arises is not only how Selmanllari became the owner of 137 hectares, but also whether he was the ultimate economic beneficiary of all this wealth.
Who was really behind the land?
In whose name was it held?
And what happened to it after the recognition and registration process was completed?
The story becomes even stronger when in 2013 the Vlora Prosecutor's Office launched investigations into the alienation of properties in Ksamil.
According to reports, three former officials of the Property Restitution and Compensation Agency, Petraq Puleri, Besnik Dine, and Emiljana Pandazo, were convicted of abuse of office.
But here the paradox appears.
The officials faced justice, while the wealth that had been produced by the process remained in legal circulation.
And it is precisely at this point that perhaps the most interesting part of Rrahman Selmanllari's file begins.
Because it is not enough to just reveal how the lands were acquired.
We need to track where they went next.
Who did Selmanllari "sell" the plots to? Which businessmen or 'crime bosses' appear in the subsequent transactions?
"Pamphlet" will bring the rest of this file: the path the lands followed after ending up in the hands of Rrahman Selmanllari and the names that appear after them.
Because the first question is: How did Rrahman Selmanllari become the "owner" of 137 hectares in Ksamil?
But the question that may reveal who really benefited is another: Who did Selmanllari "sell" the lands to? / Pamphlet
