Eight million misuse at the airport when the director was Bekim Jashari: In an indictment of Adam's grandson Yashhar

The Special Prosecutor of the Republic of Kosovo has today filed charges against two official defendants at Pristina Airport, where one of them is Bahri Nuredini, grandson of Commander Adem Jashari. In case at the time they started investigating them, Periscop had reported since October last year.

“Special Procurory announces public opinion that during the period of September 2011 to August 2018, in continuation and in the quality of official persons at Pristina International Airport (ANP), later Air Navigation Services Agency ( ASNA, defendant B.N. and D.M. have misused official duty by enabling OE “TCN” from Tirana, illegal profit.”, the Special Prosecutor of the Republic of Kosovo reported.

It is alleged that more than 8m euros were used in the tender for air navigation equipment. At the time, the director of the Airport Board was Bekim Jashari.

In 2011 AShNA (The Agency for Air Navigation Services) had announced the tender for the “Powerisation and installation of air navigation equipment”.

The value of this tender weighed 8.1m euros.

The contract was granted, a company named “TCN” and he was almost finalised, but because of a debt of approximately 600 thousand euros, which ASNA had with the company, she indicted the institution. With that, the contract was virtually broken and the project was not realised.

Most of the money was given to the company “TCN's”, but most of the equipment was never brought to Aeroport from this private company.

For this scandal at Pristina Airport, investigators from the European Union Office for Criminal Intelligence had made a special report. The report, published in the media, aroused suspicions of financial abuses on millions of projects.

At the time, in 2011, the director of the ANP Board was Bekim Jashari, meanwhile director of the Agency for Air Navigation Services ( AShNA was Bahri Nuredini.

What links Bekim Jashar and Bahri Nured to the over 8 million tender for the radar that was never bought?

Bekim Jashar was appointed chairman of the Airport Board of Directors on July 1, 2008.

After a year in 2009, Pristina Airport, headed by Jashar, would appoint the new finance director, one of the most important positions in public companies. In this important position, his aunt Bahri Nuredini's son was appointed.

During that time, Pristina International Airport was getting ready for concession. In state ownership, only air traffic control was left. The manager staff of the concession company was held to the part that would remain in state management.

Bekim Jashar in 2011 would pass to the post of board of directors of the public company “Pristina-The Air Traffic Control airport”.

The same story as that of 2009 would be repeated in 2013. Bahri Nuredini, grandson of Bekim Jashar, would be appointed chief executive chief of this public enterprise. By 2013, Nuredini was the task officer of the company's executive chief.

The Anti-Corruption Agency has assessed the appointment of Nuredin as nepotism in a position that accounts for his uncle.

The report of European investigators (EUOCI) went even further, raising doubts that Bahri Nurdini and Bekim Jashari, now head of Skyeraj who once served as board chairman of the Kosovo Civil Aviation Authority, have established a construction firm called “Premium Group”, with which buildings are built in Pristina, and that money for this profitable business may have been obtained from any project at the airport.
