(8 years ago)Two days after a letter was issued to the public by former retired special prosecutor Elez Blakaj, on the streets of Pristina will be protested to seek the dismissal of the prosecution's first body, Alexander Lumez. The protest will begin today at 6:00 and last until 8:00, and it will come true [...]
The protest will begin today at 6:00 and will last until 8:00 p.m., and the march from Zahir Pajaziti Square to the Prosecutor's Office and Prime Minister Haradinaj will take place.
So far, the protest has been organised on social networks by civil society groups, but has also been supported by figures from opposition parties. According to organisation data, up to now over 5,000 people have expressed interest in protest.
Meanwhile, prosecutor Alexander Lumez has never thought of his resignation. Asked two days ago by reporters whether he will think about resigning, he has said he does not have to do it because, according to him, he has done his job well.
Neither one of the state institutions has been declared about the need to evacuate Lumez and launch a Veting, which is the second requirement of today's protests.
However, state leaders, why they didn't say anything about Lumez, have talked about the former special prosecutor who surrendered and went to America. It was Kadri Wessel who, after Blakaj's letter, said Kosovo does not need fraud veterans, but also prosecutors he called frauds, writes the subway.
Haradinaj also spoke of Blakay the day that he through a letter blamed Lumez for pressure and policy links. Haradinaj was very tough, telling Blakaj as well as the chickenhouse. According to the government's first, Blakaj cannot know about veterans after being in Blace in wartime.
However, all of this reaction by state leaders, but also the start of calling protests, came after former special prosecutor Blakaj, through a letter from America, showed that he had been threatened by political people and accused Chief Prosecutor Lumez of links with them.
Blakaj surrendered, as he himself said, following threats over the establishment of the indictment and during the time of investigation into veterans' lists. This investigation, under the ready indictment left by the former prosecutor, was 19 thousand and 60 false veterans, and had accused the assessment commission, part of which was Agim Ceku and Minister Rrustem Berisha.
