The Director of the Albanian Anti-Corruption Agency, Gentian Gjyli, appeared at the Special Prosecutor's Office (SPAK) this morning.

He has been at SPAK for more than 2 hours and has been summoned as a person with knowledge of the investigations. Media sources indicate that he has been summoned to testify on the procedures followed in road tenders, during the time he was No. 2 of the ARRSH and director Evis Berberi, under investigation by SPAK under the security measure of 'prison arrest'. 

After leaving SPAK, he refused to provide clarifications to the media. 

Gentian Gjyli was appointed director of the ARRSH on March 28, 2024, a week after the arrest by SPAK of the former director, Evis Berberi, a close associate of Deputy Prime Minister Belinda Balluku.

Gjyli was an internal appointment within the ranks of the ARA. He previously held the position of Head of the Projects Sector and most recently that of Deputy Director General of the ARA.

Evis Berberi was arrested on March 14, 2024 by order of SPAK after being accused of passive corruption and money laundering. SPAK uncovered the scheme in which Berberi, during his time as head of the Energy Efficiency Agency, but also recently as head of the ARRSH, had awarded 6 tenders to his partner Valter Begaj's company and then the profits were transferred to the company he indirectly owned.
