(2 years ago)A tender worth $15m, which the Ministry of Internal Affairs directed by Jelal Svecla, company HINA Oligarch's Infosoft System) of Albania, Grigor Jotti, was denounced several times this year by the Kosovo opposition. That was because the contract was negotiated and was much more expensive than [...]
This is about the fact that the contract was negotiated and was much more expensive than other companies that offered.
The LDK deputy, Hykmete Bajrami, in the Kosovo Parliament had even declared months before the Ministry of Svechla has refused a company to grant 9.7m euros a tender for IT services, to negotiate with another company, and to grant this 15m euros in tender, according to the company of oligarku Joti.
Opposition criticisms of negotiated and seemingly higher priced tenders have not been impressed by Minister Svecla since on the basis of documents provided by Front Online is seen in tender: “The establishment of capacity for State Data Centre” The MBP has again chosen Grigor Jot's company from Albania, though another company named: Virtu O. P, which was cheaper (for about 25 thousand), but the ministry headed by Svechla has eliminated it from the race. The company from Kosovo, which had offered at a price of 331 thousand euros, based on the laws in force, has requested access to company documents declared as winner of the tender, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs in opposition to the law has refused the request, not allowing the company Virtou O.P to have access to company documents “Infoft System”, reports Front Online.
Otherwise, this is not the first tender by the businessman Jiti's company to receive from the Government of Kosovo, which the media have reported earlier that the same media allegedly deceived the Albanian state through extinguishable bills worth more than 4.5m euros.
Long ago, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Public Administration contracted about 15m euros for supplies with several Microsoft licenses.
But, despite these bids in the Albanian state, his company in Kosovo continues to receive very important tenders at the ministry, which is headed by Jelal Svechla.
He has also sent questions to the Kosovo Ministry of Internal Affairs on this issue, but not even after five days of waiting, they have failed to receive answers.
And on the other hand, Arita Tahiri from the Virtuo O.P. shows that their company has applied in the procurement process, had the freest offer in relation to the other company, for about 25 thousand euros, but has not been awarded in tender by the Kosovo Ministry of Internal Affairs. It further shows that the injustice they have suffered has been complained about in
The Ministry of Internal Affairs, but they are not allowed access to the tender company's bid.
We have complained to the Accounting Authority and not been allowed access to the winning OE offer. We've submitted a request for review to the Accounting Authority, but that we are not allowed, so we have not been able to access the winning OE offer on request. That's why we didn't continue the O complaint. The EMS, for not having a chance to verify our demands” has said.
According to data at the Kosovo Business Record Agency, Infosoft System is guided by AirShay, which has 52.5 %s shares and Investium Infosoft, owned by Grigor Joti, which owns 47.5 %s.
Infosoft company owner Grigor Joti, who seized over 15m euros from Prime Minister Albin Kurti's government, is accused of fraud in the area of public procurement in Albania.
High State Control (KLSH) had filed criminal charges in 2022 against it. It said that Grigori Jot has adopted 4.5 million Euros, with the release of fake tax bills for cigarette sales VAT.
These bills were issued by two ghost businesses, “Inter Distribution Services” and “INT E R TRADE& Grigority's”.
For 4.5 million Euros that the two firms of Grigor Jot of “InfoSoft” allegedly robbed the state of tax fraud, Tirana's prosecution had concluded that the bills were drafted by his brother Roland Joti, by their family family member Ana Zerroi administrator and two employees of the respective firms.
The bills were issued on behalf of a private subject named “Lindita Spaho” of Nipt: L322170441; which according to the tax register, results in self-employed sales on the market, outside of the tax obligation to the T system. VSH, Albanian media report.
Yours had unintelligiblely escaped KLSH for bill counterfeiting. The Tirana court did not take the case to the Criminal Chamber for initial trial procedure.
Businessman Jotti's stake in Infosoft was surpassed by Frederick Prodan and Guzim Dobi.
This move, according to Albanian media, was made to hide traces.
However, in the documents of the National Record Centre, he continues to be a board member of the firm. This means that Jiti is the principal leader and supervisor of these financial operations./ Front Online /
