TIRANA, December 1 /ATA/ The High Judicial Council accepted today the request of the High Inspector of Justice for disciplinary proceedings against magistrate P.F.
Head of the HJC Naureda Llagami announced the decision after the High Inspector of Justice Artur Metani gave his report to the Council.
According to Llagami, “The HJC decided to accept the disciplinary measure for cutting the salary of the magistrate by 20% for a period of 6 months”.
The High Inspector of Justice had asked the HJC to initiate disciplinary proceedings with the measure, “Salary cut up to 40% for one year” against magistrate P.F. of Elbasan Judicial District Court.
The High Inspector of Justice launched the disciplinary investigation after revelation of some facts broadcasted on the investigative show “STOP” of the TV Klan, on January 31, 2017, which seriously discredited the position and figure of the judge. The broadcast showed that in exchange for an amount of money the magistrate pledged to give the minimum sentence for a defendant in custody, who was charged with three criminal offenses./m.m/j.p/p.s./
