The opposition warns of the harshest response to defend the constitutional order. PD: "The order to freeze the investigations is dictatorship"

Ambassador Daan Everts at the PD session: "OSCE against freezing the cases for the six" The chairman of the PDSH, Prof. Dr. Sali Berisha, yesterday, regarding the interview of Defense Minister Sabit Brokaj, declared that he will closely monitor this process and that it will be an important test for democracy in Albania. In a meeting with the "RD" journalist, Ambassador Everts said that OSCE is not against investigations and court proceedings, but against political interference in them. He emphasized that Nano's trial must take place normally, in the presence of international observers and in respect of the law. According to him, freezing the investigations for the six is an action that raises doubts and damages public trust in justice. OSCE will closely monitor developments and will take a stance on any violation of democratic standards.

The Minister of the Interior does not carry out the order to calm the protestors Nano's clan demands the dismissal of the police chief Prifti calls for his replacement with a "strong hand" of the chief democrat The split within the ranks of the PS, after the detention of the arrested protesters, opponents of Nano's trial, has deepened significantly. Sources close to the government say that a group close to Prime Minister Nano is demanding the immediate removal of the head of the police, accusing him of "weakness" and of failing to control the situation. The article suggests that his replacement is expected to be a tougher figure, more obedient to political orders. The internal conflict in the socialist camp also appears to be reflecting on the public order apparatus, where tensions have risen sharply after clashes with the opposition.
