The head of SPAK, Altin Dumani, has presented the strategy for preventing electoral crimes.
At a roundtable organized by civil society regarding the May 11 electoral elections, he stated that “No one should be afraid as long as they are fulfilling their duties”.
We recall that Prime Minister Edi Rama stated that “Political parties cannot be monitored during the electoral campaign”. This statement came a day after SPAK and the General Prosecutor’s Office announced the establishment of special sections “for the investigation of criminal offenses that affect free elections”.
“We have very good cooperation with the General Prosecutor’s Office for electoral crime, we have agreed by also determining the concrete way to handle cases according to competences.
The investigation will be carried out in accordance with the law and without political influence. Electoral crime, even with informal financing, prolonging investigations post factum creates distrust. Therefore, SPAK reflected by approving the strategy in fulfillment of the legal obligation. In fulfillment of the recommendations of the Assembly. The strategy is public and accessible to anyone. If you look closely, we have reflected the concerns of international organizations, NGOs, but in addition to it, we have also included some concrete measures that we have assessed will serve the investigation in real time for the investigation of electoral crime”, said Dumani.
