"Dokle file", yesterday the Prosecutor's Office opened a criminal case

The investigation into 400 thousand dollars deepens "The case ends with the investigation into the wealth of the Missing Person" TRIANA OLlLAJ — Specialists from the Tirana прокуратor's office have begun investigating former Minister of Public Order, Perikli Teta [?], in connection with his assets. The focus of the investigation is the verification of the source of income and of documentation concerning real estate and financial transactions, which are suspected to amount to around 400 thousand dollars. According to prosecution sources, the investigations have centered on economic activity and bank deposits, as well as properties registered in the names of close family members. The number of declared assets and the discrepancies with lawful income have led the prosecution to open criminal proceedings. The Prosecutor's Office is also checking bank movements and every purchase-and-sale contract concluded in recent years. If it is proven that part of the wealth cannot be justified by income, the file is expected to be expanded with other charges as well. Sources close to the investigation said that people known within the family circle and close associates are being questioned. Investigators are requesting additional documents from state and private institutions. They are also examining whether there was concealment of assets or use of other names in the purchase of property. Yesterday's proceeding is considered one of the most important cases of recent days in the capital. The investigations are expected to continue during the coming week.
