The Parliamentary Group of the Democratic Party, through the Chairman of the Gazment Bardhi Group, has today asked SPAK to start the investigations for the former director of the Durrës Port Authority, the new Minister of Defense Pirro Vëngu.

The reason for this report is a tender procedure carried out in July 2024 by the Durrës Port Authority, which has signed a consultancy contract with the Dutch company Royal Haskoning DHV, worth 12 million euros, for the supervision of the works for the construction of the new port integrated of Durrës in Porto-Romano.

This contract was concluded through direct negotiation between the director of the Durrës Port Authority, Pirro Vëngu, and representatives of the private company Royal Haskoning DHV, without being subjected to the usual public procurement procedures.

According to PD, the former director of the Durrës Port Authority, Pirro Vëngu, has avoided all the rules of public procurement, by directly selecting the winning company, openly violating the public interest and seriously damaging the State Budget, with the aim of the economic benefit of the private entity.

In these conditions, there are reasonable doubts based on evidence, that Pirro Vëngu, former director of the Durrës Port Authority, and currently Minister of Defense, has committed the criminal offenses of "Abuse of duty" and "Violation of the equality of participants in tenders" or public auctions", provided by articles 248 and 258 of the Criminal Code.
