The Kosovo Special Prosecution Office announces that it has filed an indictment against the former mayor of Pristina, Shpend Ahmeti, for failure to report and false reporting of assets.

According to the indictment, Ahmeti, who served as president for two terms, from 2013 to 2021, had submitted incorrect asset declarations from 2018 to 2022.

"The total value of the undeclared assets reaches over 172 thousand euros," says the announcement of the Special Prosecution, which announced that the case has already been sent for review to the Basic Court in Pristina.

The declaration of assets by public figures in Kosovo began in 2007.

After completing the asset declaration process, the KPA, through a lottery, selects a certain number of public officials whose declared assets it verifies.

Failure to declare assets, according to the Criminal Code of the Republic of Kosovo, is punishable by a fine or imprisonment of up to three years, while false declaration of assets is punishable by a fine and imprisonment of six months to five years.

So far, none of the officials who have not declared their assets have been sentenced to imprisonment.
