Former Minister of Defense and Deputy Prime Minister in the Berisha government, Gazmend Oketa, has been summoned by SPAK as a witness in today's court session on the emergency privatization affair of the former "Partizani" complex. The session is held at 10:00.
In addition to him, Elvira Lame, Paro Laçi and Isa Tare have also been summoned. The latter was supposed to testify at the June 22 session, but said he was abroad.
Last session, strong testimony was that of Ylli Pango, the former Minister of Sports, who said that he had been against changing the destination of the former Partizani club's premises, i.e. the construction of 19 towers there. He said that even the 2008 legal change that made this possible was not his initiative, but a proposal of the Berisha government.
Berisha directly accused Pango on June 18, 2008, of having first proposed a law to the government, in defense of the interests of sports club owners. However, in the GJKKO, the former minister denied having been present at the government meeting that decided to pass the law to the Council of Ministers.
