TIRANA, Jan.28 /ATA/- OFL had a great effect on reduction of both crime and corruption curve in the country. The results achieved in this extensive operation will remain in the history of this country as a culmination of the strike force against the criminal world, the Albania’s Minister of Interior, Bledi Çuçi said at the today’s plenary session.
At the today’s plenary session on the Normative Act MPs discussed the opportunity to postpone the effects of OFL, so that the Special Structure against Corruption and Organized Crime (SPAK) can review the hundreds of pending cases.
“In the 11-month period since the operation started officially on the last day of 2020, 243 files have been submitted to SPAK for 1877 assets of dubious origin, they include the names of 255 persons as subjects to this law. With regard to these referrals, the Special Court of Appeal for Corruption and Organised Crime has issued only 105 decisions for 641 properties until December 31, 2020, among which 314 are real estate, 224 are movable property, 98 commercial activities and 5 bank accounts,: Minister Çuçi said.
In his remarks Minister Çuçi stated that, “the reason we requested the approval of this act is that the Special Court Against Organized Crime and Corruption of the SPAK closes all criminal proceedings in view of the implementation of the law on OFL and make a decision on 1877 assets of dubious origin”. //a.i/
