The Special Prosecution Office against Organized Crime and Corruption (SPAK) has accused former AC Milan sporting director Igli Tare of money laundering, linking him to the ongoing 'Balluku' corruption file. Tare is suspected of concealing a villa in Palasa, allegedly connected to public procurement irregularities.
Meanwhile, anti-government protests have broadened their base, with academics, writers, and parents joining students in demonstrations against Prime Minister Edi Rama. Rama has once again placed chairs in front of the Prime Ministry, extending an offer for dialogue while simultaneously vowing action against those engaging in violence.
The Prime Minister's rhetoric is being criticized as potentially inciting police brutality during the protests, which are fueled by widespread public disappointment and perceived government arrogance. Separately, details are emerging regarding a serious incident in Tirana where a victim's final call was reportedly to his wife.
