Ervin Salianji said he was not at all surprised by the Supreme Court's decision to overturn his appeal to overturn his 1-year prison sentence. In a Facebook post, Salianji says this decision was the short cut the court chose, writes A2 CNN.
"They have no professional ethics or even the minimal courage to provide justice and enter into conflict with Edi Rama. This is a line of conduct. If the Supreme Court were a guarantee of justice, it would be a guarantee of a regular and lawful legal process, even the courts below would not dare to sign the farces that are being signed," wrote Salianji.
He added that his punishment is done to eliminate him from the political battle! "In every confrontation I have defeated Edi Rama and his gang. Most recently in Kavaja in the victory of the municipality, and everywhere else. My political punishment is an open threat to anyone who fights crime, corruption and the mafia in power.
My political conviction is an open support for the mafia and international traffickers. The time chosen to give the decision one day before the announcement of the lists is also a threatening message to anyone who dares to speak the truth! In these times of parades of shame, times of serious financial affairs, I have zero corruption, zero charges for a single penny. Therefore, imprisonment for denunciation, for speech, is a medal. I am proud of my battles in the interest of the people. I have chosen the uncompromising fight from the beginning and the citizens have supported me for this. The trials against me will enter the historical shame of judicial cases as a case of using justice for personal revenge by Rama and Xhafaj. (A2 Televizion)
