Ergys Agasi Appears Before the Special Court, SPAK Seeks Continuation of “Detention in Prison”; Klodiana Lala Reveals Details

This Friday, Ergys Agasi appeared before the Special Court against Corruption and Organized Crime (GJKKO), where he was formally notified of the security measure previously imposed in his absence.

He was arrested two days ago in the Plepave area of Durrës.

The hearing began at 09:30 but was interrupted at the request of the defense, which asked for time to review the case file. When the proceedings resumed, Special Prosecutor Bledar Maksuti requested that the “detention in prison” measure against Agasi remain in force.

According to him, the suspect poses a high flight risk, as he had been wanted for eight months.

SPAK considers Agasi the leader of a structured criminal group that, according to the investigation, operated within the National Agency of Information Society (AKSHI), in cooperation with Ermal Beqiri.

He is accused of unlawful competition through violence, unlawful deprivation of liberty, money laundering and violating equality in tenders, with the aim of removing rivals from public procurement competitions.

The defense has requested that the measure be replaced with a more lenient security measure. The lawyer said that his client had not been involved in criminal activity and had not administered public funds.

At the time of his detention, former police official Uljan Shpataraku was also in the vehicle with Agasi. The latter is expected to appear before the GJKKO tomorrow, where he will face charges of aiding the perpetrator of a crime.

Meanwhile, the State Police has suspended two members of the “Eagles” forces from duty after several photos of the arrested man taken on police premises were published.
