The lawsuit in SPAK for Edi Rama that on January 24, the FBI directorates of Los Angeles and Washington have completed the file of the Albanian prime minister on the McGonigal affair, the letters to the USA are expected

On January 24, the official Democratic Party submitted to SPAK a report for the initiation of investigations against Prime Minister Rama for his ties with the former high official of the FBI, Charles McGonigal, saying that the latter was bribed by the Albanian leader to concocted DP lobbying with Russian money. The new justice was immediately set in motion and even asked the DP to make available the initial materials of the American justice. DP has asked SPAK to investigate Rama for "Active corruption of foreign public servants", a criminal offense punishable by Albanian criminal legislation. Director Altin Dumani was also sent the indictment of the District of Columbia Prosecutor's Office, dated 15.09.2022. It is not yet known if the criminal process has started, but SPAK has been conducting its own verifications throughout this period. After making the complaint, the denunciation is verified in relation to the evidence you have, the documents. But the recent developments in the USA, where the former agent has pleaded guilty to the charge brought against him that implicates Prime Minister Rama, is an important development for the file located in SPAK. We recall that in the US indictment, the name of Prime Minister Edi Rama is mentioned 14 times and the connections he had, together with two other Albanian officials, Agron Neza and Dorian Ducka, with former agent McGonigal. There was talk of at least 4 meetings that Rama had held with McGonigal in Albania and the USA, which were held in violation of FBI protocols for such meetings. The former FBI special agent has been charged with money laundering, violating US sanctions and other offenses related to his work with a Russian oligarch. It is alleged that McGonigal performed some services in his favor, hitting an opposition party in Albania, which is suspected to be the Democratic Party. SPAK is expected to confirm these by mail, where the FBI offices of Los Angeles and Washington will submit all the information they have about the "Rama-McGonigal" file.

Orders to the USA are awaited

Even the journalist Anila Hoxha, speaking a while ago about the case of former FBI agent Charles McGonigal and his connections with Prime Minister Rama and Albania, stated that if there is a return, SPAK's response in relation to this case states that the proceedings criminal case has not been registered, while he added that in the end one can go to letters of order, a way to get legal help from another country, in this case from the USA. On the other hand, the former Prosecutor of Serious Crimes, Eugen Beçi, has said that the anonymous proceeding is a recording of the criminal fact, which then leads to the investigation of whether such an offense exists in order to postpone the investigation on the author of the offense. According to him, in order to complete this action, evidence will be needed, for which a letter of order from abroad comes into play. but if there is enough evidence in Albania, there will be no need. However, Beçi stated that everything remains in the hands of SPAK and how much will the Special Prosecutor's Office will have. "The anonymous procedure is the registration of the criminal act and this fable is investigated if there is a criminal act. If a criminal offense is established that is suspected to have been committed by an Albanian citizen, the prosecution registers the case related to the criminal fact and further investigations find the perpetrators of the criminal offense to determine the name of the perpetrator. Registration without a name acknowledges the criminal fact. In order to complete the registration of the author's name, evidence is needed, here the evidence that is in the USA can come into play, and this is where the letter of order is used, obtaining legal assistance from another country. Evidence can also be obtained through other diplomatic missions such as embassies,
