Bomb on the northern border

Shehu: We are against communist practices "The judiciary, in carrying out its function, cannot cooperate with any other power" No conditions for action The media that use the constitutional right to inform the public are exercising this right repeatedly and one-sidedly, creating confusion not only in public opinion but also in some state bodies, necessarily also triggering their response. This fact runs counter to the constitutional right of each power to independence and mutual control. The judiciary cannot accept interference, whether from the media or even from local and central government bodies. The independence of the judiciary is protected by the constitution and by law. Any response to unilateral or provocative actions by the government or its bodies must be based only on the law and not on political conjunctures. In this sense, the Court of Cassation defends its constitutional role and considers unacceptable any attempt to involve the court in police and political practices. Regarding the accusations raised by the Minister of Public Order Perikli Teta[?] and the statements made about the court's position, it is made known that relations between the court and the police bodies can only be understood in accordance with constitutional provisions. Only in a dictatorship do the judiciary and the police cooperate in a way that violates the separation of powers. In a state governed by law, each one exercises its own function. Continuing the response, it is stated that the use of sensitive national and security issues for propaganda purposes harms the public interest. The northern border, the situation in Kosovo, and the concerns of recent days require institutional responsibility and not pressure on the courts. That was the essence of the reply the Court of Cassation gave to Dole. English translation: "Bomb on the northern border. Cassation replies to Dole: Çykla and the police cooperate only in dictatorship. Shehu: We are against communist practices. The judiciary, in carrying out its function, cannot cooperate with any other power. No conditions for action. The media that use the constitutional right to inform the public are exercising this right repeatedly and one-sidedly, creating confusion not only in public opinion but also in some state bodies..." Italian translation: "Bomba al confine settentrionale. La Cassazione risponde a Dole: Çykla e la polizia collaborano solo nella dittatura. Shehu: Siamo contro le pratiche comuniste. Il potere giudiziario, nell'esercizio della sua funzione, non può collaborare con nessun altro potere. Nessuna condizione per agire..."
