Today at 5 am, Erion Veliaj was seen leaving the paid VIP lounge (200 euros per stay) of the Rinas airport.
“He was alone, not accompanied by anyone, dressed in sportswear and wearing a hat,” a source told Lapsi.al.
Further confirmations from the editorial office confirmed that his final destination is the United States of America. This trip, for which there is no confirmation of his return, comes a day after Veliaj’s staff published a long statement in the media, accusing SPAK of being “malicious, deliberate and contrary to the law” in the investigations against him. So Veliaj, who like all citizens of this country enjoys the right to freedom of movement, is complaining that prosecutors are conducting an unfair and biased investigation against him.
Will he choose to confront them, or will he continue to avoid them like Arben Ahmetaj?
The four charges for which SPAK announced that it suspects Veliaj, including the money laundering charge that carries a sentence of up to 15 years in prison, proved that his position has become extremely difficult. This was also proven by the fact that, for the first time, the media close to the government and the municipality engaged in a frontal attack on SPAK, accusing it of becoming an instrument of the internal war in the SP. An unconfirmed source told Lapsi.al that Veliaj will return in a few days (it is not known exactly) and that he has crossed the ocean in a desperate attempt to lobby the trajectory of his personal destiny, which he has taken for granted.
He denied using the words escape and evasion of justice, despite Veliaj himself believing that a witch hunt is being conducted against him. He also denied the claim that Erioni had told Rama that “if anything happens to me, I will take you with me.”/LAPSI
