In the prosecution's request, Krasniqi reportedly in the quality of the head of the CRU “Gjakova”, deliberately and knowingly had acted contrary to the prior legal authorisations for this position and the applicable rules of public procurement, in a way that regarding the procurement activity “Fournisation by boat” had undertaken anti-law actions.

It says that on July 5, 2024, with his suggestion and request addressed by Wisar Hasi-Micical Director of the CRU “Gjakova”, requests for the initiative of the procurement procedure had been put forward, setting technical criteria that were clearly favourable for OE (economicOperator) winner “Land Fix<3> SCK, thus excluding all other competitors. The boat's specific data reportedly assured the suspect Krasniqi by the boat owner Arlind Hassimja, with whom they are in friendly relations.

Always on demand, the favourable criteria for OE winners and disfellowshipped for the competitive OE were in the tender file for this procurement activity and with the establishment of the Comesin for assessments of the allegations placed its sides in a matter conducted, as the winner was known.

According to the prosecution, OE winner “Land FIX” shpk, was announced the winner of the tender at the price of 24 thousand and 500 euros. The boat supply contract was signed on August 16, 2024.

After the contract manager and direct overseer of the contract manager were appointed, the prosecution stresses that the Commission had been formed for technical admission of the boat for the tender in question. Later, the Commission had accepted the boat.

This was reportedly done by shooting four photos of it in the KRU court “Gjakova”, not asking or verifying the boat's monitoring documentation, including the trading contract, the purchase bill, the bank's card, and customs documentation for customs customs customs customs procedures. After that, the report on accepting the boat was reportedly compiled.
