Kim said that “this case, which involves a former senior official detained by the US for significant corruption, shows that no one, no matter how powerful, is above the law.”

“Good to see SPAK delivering more and more results. This case, which involves a former high official barred from the US for significant corruption, shows that no one – no matter how powerful – is above the law. When ALL are equal before the law, ALL have dignity. That is true dignity,” Kim said.

The Special Court of First Instance for Organized Crime and Corruption sentenced on Thursday former chief prosecutor, Adriatik Llalla, to 2 years in jail and 5 year expulsion from public office.

Llala is the first Albanian senior official ever convicted by a court in the country./m.m/r.e/sm/
