Note: Prisoners are categorically banned from cell phones. There are dozens of cases where the director of prisons has reported the successes of the searches where these communication devices have been seized.
There's a reason he's banned. Over the phones, prisoners convicted of serious crimes from drug trafficking within a structured criminal group to murder direct their criminal activities from the cell.
Over the phone they continue trafficking, even ordering murders. The phone within cells is not only used for business, but also to communicate with justice minister Ulsi Manja himself, who legally has prison management in his hands.
"Verification in every IEVP personally of all complaints from the convicts themselves on my cell phone, starting with the first question of where they found the cell phone for communication", the minister promised this Friday.
With this statement, Ulsi Manja must automatically be questioned by SPAK to clarify communications with prisoners, as long as they continue, their content of any other ambiguity that rightly arises after this statement of the minister.
But this statement will also pass, and in the lead-up to three days it will be forgotten, as will many others. However, Manja does not even need to show what she promised and what she did not, but it is enough to act. With such statements on Facebook, more than the minister of justice who has control of prisons in his hands, he resembles a civil society activist who denounces.
However, Prime Minister Edi Rama himself did the same this Friday. He has controlled the Assembly since 2013, has the majority to pass and change laws, issue rules and decisions in government and also controls 90 percent of municipalities.
But what do you do? He collects second-level bank executives in front of the cameras and accuses them of preventing digitization through the setting of commissions for small payments that the government intends to introduce online.
Instead of begging banks for this, Rama could well intervene in the law, or issue a government decision with a list of online services and payments that should be offered through second-rate banks, which are exempt from paying commissions.
Thus Ulsi Manja, who instead of action chooses to denounce and show what he will do with prisons in the future, gives time to the corrupt, or the nepotic appointments in the system to "fix" the letters and clear the names.
This is not the first time Manja has issued such warnings. When he introduced the anticorruption unit he set up with the Ministry of Justice, he sent the direct message to the corrupt at every level of the administration to "stop stealing and abusing them than they will catch".
