Topi urges judiciary to investigate accusations

TIRANA, Sep. 15 – President Bamir Topi on Wednesday called on the judiciary not to stand by and listen when politicians attack each other, but to deal with the cases and clarify the accusations and the public at large.
Speaking at a meeting of the High Council of Justice, Topi said that politicians on both sides of the isle are trading many accusations of corruption against each other.
“The judiciary cannot stand by as a spectator,” he said.
The governing Democratic Party of Prime Minister Sali Berisha and the main opposition Socialist party of Tirana Mayor Edi Rama have exchanged daily accusations against each other, blaming many high level officials, lawmakers, or ministers of corruption and of exploiting their public positions to abuse public funds.
