Lawyer Ylli Manjani, already very active in relation to justice and politics, in a note on social networks emphasizes justice that must be based on evidence. He emphasizes that "the court cannot do justice if it is forced to complete the file with evidence that the prosecutor or even the lawyer did not do. The court is above the parties and not at the service of one party".
"What I'm trying to say is that the standard that fair justice based on evidence and facts should reach is:
-Long investigations and speedy trials, instead of speedy investigations and protracted trials.
The court cannot do justice if it is forced to complete the file with evidence that the prosecutor or even the lawyer did not do. The court is above the parties and not at the service of one party.
-Also, one does not go from the person to the evidence, but vice versa, that is, from the evidence to the person. Arresting people and putting them in prison because there will be evidence on the way, it is not called justice.
- And obviously, the investigative data must be kept well in the file. Their publication, totally removed from the context of the events or even from the investigative context, encourages judgment with opinions and not on facts. This is unacceptable.
- There are also some other things related to the procedural guarantees in the trial, to the equality of means, to the effective defense, to the presumption of innocence, to the prohibition of calling the evidence of the means to obtain them, etc., etc. Yes, I don't want to bother you because they seem like details, although they are important.
I understand the ardent desire to make news and clicks with investigative chronicles, I also know the communist way of judging others, but justice is done in the courtroom strictly based on evidence, respecting everyone's freedom and rights.
It is not at all standard that journalists stand at the door of the court to "steal" no confidential news, to sell it as journalistic investigation.
