Berisha brings out the weapons; he will attack the President

The OSCE and Albanian experts complete the Electoral Code; the opposition declares that it does not recognize this Code. The Code goes to the Government on Monday. . The opposition leader risks receiving the greatest legal punishment of his life. Berisha said yesterday that “the DP will commit to a strategy of revolts with which it will reject the CEC decreed by President Meidani, and for this purpose it will use every means and weapons.” Berisha yesterday gave it to be understood that for this purpose he will use every means and weapons. In July 1997, Berisha tried this out when, together with Leka Zogu, he attacked the Central Electoral Commission. BY MARTIN NIKAJ - PAGE 7

Here is how experts from the Ministry of Public Order “bury” the “September 14” case

Banditry on the way to victory over the state is how experts from the Ministry of Public Order “bury” the “September 14” case • The first to evade confronting the shocking events of September 13 and 14 were state institutions and prominent politicians • Experts from the Central Forensic Laboratory skillfully avoided saying what they are legally required to say • How will this case ultimately be resolved: will the bandits who attacked the state with weapons win, or the state that was attacked by them with weapons? • The police continue to remain indifferent toward those accused of armed insurrection, who, despite being under house arrest by court order, move freely through the streets of Tirana and other cities in the country, including systematically setting off Berisha’s rallies • Hasn’t the time come for the head of government to demand a full accounting from his subordinates in the Ministry of Public Order, the Ministry of Justice and the General Prosecutor’s Office?
