Imeri: Former BDI ministers took part in decision on state-owned shares that ended up with Alta Bank’s Davor Macura

VLEN has released documents that, according to the party, show former BDI officials were involved in the sale of state-owned shares in “Economic Bank” in Manastir, now called “Alta Bank Macedonia”.

The party says the decision was made on June 6, 2023, during the government’s 158th session, which was attended by Artan Grubi, Fatmir Besimi, Bujar Osmani and Kreshnik Bekteshi. The document authorizing the sale of the shares bears Artan Grubi’s signature and was published in the “Official Gazette” on June 13, 2023.

According to VLEN, the decision is linked to subsequent share transactions through the company “AS Senjak”, as well as a 5 million euro loan obtained from Alta Bank in Belgrade.

In its statement, VLEN says the “Official Gazette” documents and government meeting minutes provide the strongest evidence that the “Alta Bank” case does not involve unrelated business transactions, but a coordinated operation.

VLEN has called on the Public Prosecutor’s Office and the Financial Intelligence Directorate to expand the investigation and question the former BDI officials who took part in approving the decisions.
