Prime Minister Edi Rama revealed today for the first time that he asked Gladis Nano to resign and when he refused, he fired him.
"Regarding it, it is true that the previous director was asked to resign and he confirmed to me that he would resign on Monday, as the conversation took place on Saturday, as we were very concerned about unpleasant developments related to public order and the police. Issues that have been addressed with the first director. This is the truth," he said.
Referring to the new police director, Muhamet Rrumbullaku, he denied that 10 years ago he had labeled him as part of the "Çiftelia" group.
"First, you don't have me in mind, second, maybe you should take this as one of the examples that we don't govern by dividing Albanians into ours and theirs, and we don't deal with biographies and things of this nature.
We are not a patron-Nazi regime and in this case I salute them because they are the heart of the SP. Muhamet Rrumbullaku does not come from the portals at the head of the state police, but several years of work in the direction of the AMP. One of the most important directors.
And one of the officers with the longest experience. Those couplets and drums I brought back 10 years later on stage, for reasons that I know, but for which there is no reason why and by whom they have no value. Roundness is a moral value with indisputable integrity".
