The Law Commission report will be sent to the plenary hearing, following A2 CNN.
During his speech in the Commission, DP representative, MP Djind John, listed some of the violations he said Begaj committed during the exercise of office.
He said the decree for partial elections in Tirana was unconstitutional and the president according to John has taken over the competencies of the judicial system and caused confusion in the electorate.
John added that Begaj cannot continue to be head of state and representative of national unity.
The DP's “group has applied for the start of parliamentary procedure for the dismissal of President Begaj. We are convinced that Begaj cannot continue to be head of state and representative of the unity of the people. We have come to the conclusion that Begaj has consumed seven violations of the Constitution and the law, enough to dismiss it.
The serious violations of the Begaj Constitution are the following:
The unconstitutional decree for elections in Tirana City. Contrary to the Constitution, Begaj decreed partial local elections in City Hall of Tirana, without being created constitutionally, the vacica.
It has put elections in Tirana's City Hall in constitutional order. It has undermined their legitimacy, causing confusion in the electors. He has received the competencies of the judiciary”, John said, among other things.
