The National Inspectorate of Territory Protection launched in the early hours of the morning an action for the demolition of a swimming pool in Irfan Hysenbelli's restaurant in Durrës, which the authorities say was without a permit, while the owner of News24 has a permit.
The action caused reactions. Among the first was Ilir Meta, then Sali Berisha and other politicians, public figures and even the media, although the latter showed self-restraint, based on the fact that they are more familiar with the behind-the-scenes of the conflict started between Irfan Hysenbelli and the Government.
Hysenbelli's media sold the demolition of a swimming pool that occupied the public beach in this area (without entering the debate with or without permission) as a major public interest with live broadcast from the first minutes of the start of the action, in the morning until around 16:30 minutes. So, for more than 8 hours, the Albanians "drown" in the pool together with the IKMT's training camp.
However, this was one side of the manifestation in the ugliest possible way of the public perception that for a long time Irfan Hysenbelliu was using the media for personal interests. The other side was his attempt to raise apparently, a storm in the already broken pool.
The storm had to be raised with the reactions of politicians, opposition and government. At least that was the intention. From the opposition, he received the support and immediate response from Ilir Meta, then from Sali Berisha, and successively the MPs and other political figures of the opposition.
Everyone spoke, but none of them was Irfan's 'brother', as at least Arben Ahmetaj called the owner of the resort and a media group. Ahmetaj is known for his frequent visits to the Prestige Resort, where he often sat at the front of the tables he organized.
The 'Brother', or the 'Tiger' of the government, as it was known until recently, has disappeared. He hid on the day his 'brother' needed him most. But why did the 'Tiger' hide? There can be several reasons. His relations with Edi Rama are at their lowest point and after leaving the government, he is almost removed from the direction of the SP in Vlora District.
This may be the main reason why 'Tigri' did not find the courage to come to Irfan Hysenbelli's defense, as Alfred Peza did, the former deputy of the SP. But this shows that more than 'brother', Arben Ahmetaj has used Irfan Hysenbelli for media influence, so that he could then use him to promote himself up the ladder of power, even as Edi Rama's right-hand man for many years. time.
Of course, this influence was not gained with a 'smile', or only with lunches and dinners at 'Prestige' in Durrës. To ensure this influence, 'Tigri' used the power to distribute benefits to the media, which then closed their eyes and ears in the face of accusations of corruption in the reconstruction process, or the lack of transparency in tenders, as the Control reveals. of the State in audit reports.
Among the media that have 'amnestied' Arben Ahmetaj from accusations of corruption, there are also those of Irfan Hysenbelli. Coincidence?
