President Osmani decides not to decree Blerim Isufaj to chief prosecutor

So Osman announced at a news conference.

“Based on the spirit and letter of our Constitution, argued by the numerous judgments of the Constitutional Court, I consider that we cannot have constitutional functioning of institutions unless a process is carried out on respecting constitutional and legal procedures”, Osmani said.

It showed that the “process of selecting the chief prosecutor has been described as unfair, discriminated against, orchestrated, illegal by all observers of the process, both by local organisations and by many of the international partners”.

Its assessment, Osmani said it is “within its constitutional mandate” as president, and that it has “recorded all violations”, citing some of them.
