By Ylli Manjani*
This reform has a name called failure. We can not do much about it right now. The opposition lost the opportunity to make its contribution. The question of what went wrong with this reform has never got an answer.
The fact is that this train has been lost and this reform should be let degenerate as it is, looking forward to the expectation that this popular perception will turn into a popular reaction.
My real suggestion is this and especially to you who lead the Democratic Party.
Has Justice Reform been done? No, Justice Reform has not been done. A reform of human resources has been made, but the justice system has not been overthrown.
There have been interventions in some procedural articles that have aggravated judicial conduct. They have worsened the Bolshevik mentality according to which you are arrested, then evidence is found.
Doctor Edvin Prifti is a symbol of these days – “first, let us arrest you and then we will find something for you. An anonymous letter on yo will surely come out.”
I do not defend any man but I can even use names in the public interest.
I also used the name of Saimir Tahiri (a former interior minister).
To be fair, Saimir Tahiri has not abused with his duty. This is not justice, this is a masquerade to tell people that when we imprison Saimir let alone what we do to you.
This is revenge, this is wickedness!
