Rama's Bold Challenge: Show Me the Project to Cancel!

Rama's Bold Challenge: Show Me the Project to Cancel!

Kryeministri Edi Rama ka reaguar ashpër përmes një reagimi të gjatë në rrjetin social X, pas protestës së dytë masive të zhvilluar nga qytetarët përpara godinës së Kryeministrisë në mbrojtje të Zvërnecit. Kreu i qeverisë i është drejtuar drejtpërdrejt organizatorëve dhe zërave kritikë, duke e cilësuar kauzën e tyre si një fushatë të mbushur me shpifje, manipulime dhe gënjeshtra të qëllimshme.Në reagimin e tij, Rama ka sqaruar se kërkesa e protestuesve për të anuluar projektin është absurde, pasi sipas tij, aktualisht nuk ka ende një projekt përfundimtar për të anuluar. Ai zbuloi se mbi këtë ide po punojnë pesë nga studiot më prestigjioze të arkitekturës në botë dhe se çdo gjë do të bëhet publike në momentin e duhur."Nuk ka asnjë projekt për të anuluar"Kryeministri sfidoi organizatorët që t'i paraqesin projektin që po kundërshtojnë, duke theksuar se ai po hartohet nga emra të mëdhenj të arkitekturës ndërkombëtare."Në rregull, pajtohem – më sillni projektin dhe ne do ta anulojmë! Por si është e mundur që nuk keni asgjë për të sjellë sepse nuk ka projekt?", shprehet Rama, duke listuar studiot ndërkombëtare si Kengo Kuma, Bjarke Ingels, Jean Nouvel, Emre Arolat dhe K-Studio si autorët që po punojnë për këtë sipërmarrje.Akuzat për manipulim dhe të vërtetat e investimit 4 miliardë euroRama akuzoi organizatorët se po keqpërdorin ndjenjat e qytetarëve të mirë që e duan natyrën, duke përhapur teori konspirative rreth një "pushtimi izraelit" apo shndërrimi të Zvërnecit në një "geto palestineze". Ai sqaroi se bashkëinvestitorët në këtë projekt gjigant turistik prej 4 miliardë eurosh janë nga Shtetet e Bashkuara të Amerikës dhe Katari, specifikisht konglomerati "Power Holding" përmes kompanisë "Assets".Sipas kreut të qeverisë, kjo luftë politike synon ta mbajë Shqipërinë të gjunjëzuar dhe të dëmtojë imazhin e saj si një destinacion i "Ligës së Kampionëve" në turizmin mesdhetar. "E vërteta vonon, por nuk harron, dhe gënjeshtrat e tua kanë filluar që sot të pengohen në këmbët e tyre të shkurtra", përfundon reagimi i tij.Komenti i plotë i Ramës në X:"A duhet ta anuloj projektin? A është kjo arsyeja pse i thirrët njerëzit e mirë për të protestuar, ata qe ju ndoqën edhe sot? Në rregull, pajtohem – më sillni projektin dhe ne do ta anulojmë! Por si është e mundur që nuk keni asgjë për të sjellë sepse nuk ka projekt? A e dini pse nuk ka projekt? Sepse projekti po punohet nga pesë nga studiot më prestigjioze në botë! Klikoni te Kengo Kuma (Japoni), Bjarke Ingels (Danimarkë), Jean Nouvel (Francë), Emre Arolat (Turqi), K-Studio (Greqi) dhe njihuni me autorët e projektit arkitektonik. Së shpejti, kur projekti të jetë gati, padyshim që do ta paraqesim publikisht, siç bëjmë gjithmonë me projektet e mëdha të arkitektëve ndërkombëtarë, veçanërisht për një investim historik si ky. Pra, më vjen keq, por nuk kemi një projekt për të anuluar. Por me "Izraelin që ka marrë Zvërnecin për ta bërë atë një geto palestineze", a do ta vazhdoni akoma? Pra, do të vazhdoni të shfrytëzoni ndjenjat e qytetarëve të mirë, pavarësisht besimit apo ideologjisë, që e duan Shqipërinë me gjithë zemër dhe natyrën e saj? Ata dalin në rrugë për shkak të kësaj ndjenje të plagosur nga manipulimet tuaja rreth shkatërrimit të supozuar të natyrës, por absolutisht jo për të fyer kujtimin legjendar të gjyshërve tanë myslimanë dhe të krishterë, të cilët i dhanë Shqipërisë vendin e nderit në Luftën e Dytë Botërore duke mbrojtur hebrenjtë me jetën e tyre! Ata duhet ta dinë të vërtetën e bukur: se bashkëinvestitorët në sipërmarrjen më të madhe turistike në Mesdheun evropian të sotëm, atje në Zvërnec, janë miq të dashur amerikanë të Shqipërisë dhe miq nga Katari – ky i fundit është bashkëpronar i konglomeratit gjigant Power Holding – pra nga një vend që nuk ka lidhje me Izraelin, por ndryshe nga djajtë e trushpërlarë dhe brutalë që duan ta "mbrojnë" Zvërnecin nga pushtimi izraelit, ata janë myslimanë vizionarë dhe të përulur ndaj Allahut dhe ndaj punës!

Kliko, kliko. Epo, mirë—si do ta mbash gjallë këtë luftë tënden, të mbushur me shpifje dhe manipulime, me të njëjtat gënjeshtra? Apo mendon se ata midis jush që më kanë besuar dhe më kanë votuar do të të ndjekin verbërisht derisa të zbatosh planin për të cilin je paguar, trajnuar, orkestruar—jo nga një mjeshtër i vetëm, por nga krerët e ndryshëm të bandës, për të cilët natyra e Zvërnecit nuk do të thotë asgjë, por që e duan Shqipërinë si tokë të djegur për investimet e mëdha që e dallojnë Ligën e Kampionëve nga destinacionet turistike të nivelit të dytë dhe të tretë?! Edhe më keq, e duan në gjunjë siç ishin mësuar deri dje, jo në këmbë dhe me kokën lart siç është tani—e lëre më me kurorën e princeshës së turizmit mesdhetar… Do ta shohim—e vërteta vonon, por nuk harron, dhe gënjeshtrat e tua kanë filluar që sot të pengohen në këmbët e tyre të shkurtra" -->FACT CHECK: Synimi i JOQ Albania është t’i paraqesë lajmet në mënyrë të saktë dhe të drejtë.

Explosive New Evidence in Charlie Kirk Case to Be Revealed: What You Need to Know

Explosive New Evidence in Charlie Kirk Case to Be Revealed: What You Need to Know

New evidence in the Charlie Kirk assassination is set to be made public at a hearing next month, a Utah judge ruled Monday.Suspect Tyler Robinson’s lawyers sought to bar news cameras from a five-day preliminary hearing set for July, when the prosecution is expected to lay out evidence against the 23-year-old defendant.District Judge Tony Graf rejected that motion. Tyler Robinson, who is accused of fatally shooting Charlie Kirk, appears during a hearing in Fourth District Court in Provo, Utah. APThe Kirk case has been the subject of prevalent conspiracy theories, and Erika Kirk has sought to keep the proceedings as open as possible.Prosecutors say Robinson fatally shot the Turning Point USA founder during an appearance at Utah Valley University in Orem on Sept. 10 — then confessed to the murder to his lover via text.Robinson’s team also claimed prosecutors have illegally sensationalized the case, pushed political agendas and villainized him in the eyes of the public, violating a pre-trial publicity order.Graf did not find the Provo County District Attorney’s office in contempt of court on Monday, but he said both sides would have the chance to present their arguments on June 12. Charlie Kirk speaks at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025 in Orem, Utah moments before being fatally shot. Getty ImagesGraf also ruled that media would be allowed to film and live stream a much-anticipated July hearing in which the prosecution is expected to present its most damning evidence.Tyler’s attorneys have repeatedly argued that media access would be tantamount to blasting potential jurors with anti-Robinson propaganda before the trial begins.Judge Graf argued that most of the evidence in question has already been revealed and discussed in the public arena, and that there are other ways to protect Robinson’s rights.“Several methods remain available to protect the defendant’s right to a fair trial, including enlarging the veneer of potential jurors, utilizing detailed juror questionnaires, and conducting thorough voir dire,” Graf said.

Jill Biden Breaks Silence on Joe's Painful Decision: What She Revealed

Jill Biden Breaks Silence on Joe's Painful Decision: What She Revealed

Jill Biden conceded Monday that if she had to do it all over again, she would not advise husband Joe Biden to seek re-election.“Would I want to put Joe through the hurt and the pain that we felt during that time? Never, never. I mean, it was so hurtful,” she told NBC’s “Today” show ahead of the Tuesday release of her memoir, “View from the East Wing.”But, the former first lady added, the decision about whether to run again “had to be his decision alone” and “the doctors said he was healthy” enough to serve four more years.President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden after the June 2024 debate against Donald Trump in Atlanta. Getty Images“I saw him doing the job every single day, every single day. He got up, he went into the office, he did the job,” she added. “I saw him work hours into the night.”Jill Biden admitted the 46th president had slowed down and was stuttering more — but argued those were signs of exhaustion rather than mental decline.“Was he slowing down a little bit when he got tired?” she asked. “Did he stutter a little bit at night? Yeah, sure. But he was still doing the job, and he was doing a good job.”Joe Biden, then 81, was the oldest president ever elected and his age was on full display on June 27, 2024, when he stumbled and fumbled for words during his debate with former President Donald Trump.In her memoir, the former first lady wrote she was worried her husband was having a stroke as he struggled for answers during the CNN forum.But after the debate, she joined Joe Biden for a stop at an Atlanta Waffle House, followed by a campaign rally where she praised him for a job well done.“Joe — you did such a great job,” she said. “You answered every question, you knew all the facts.” Jill Biden defended those comments Monday, arguing she was being a good, supportive wife.“I’m his wife, I’ve got to lift him up, so we go to the next event, and I’m thinking, ‘What do I say that will lift him up?’ That is true. I want to say the things that are true,” she said.“I had to support him. I’m his wife. I’m not going to get out on the stage there and say, ‘Joe, you really screwed that up.’ We have all our supporters there,” Jill added. “I mean, I had to support him.”Jill Biden spoke to CBS about her husband’s time in office. CBS Sunday MorningIn the aftermath of the disastrous debate, many Democrats publicly and privately advised Joe Biden to exit the presidential race, which he ultimately did on July 21, 2024. Kamala Harris stepped in as the Democratic nominee and lost to Trump, which Jill Biden said surprised her.“[On] election night, I was certain she was going to win,” Biden told CBS “Sunday Morning.” “The excitement for her and the crowds and, I mean, how people rallied around her, and I truly felt that she was going to win.”Jill Biden didn’t think her husband should have run for a second term. AFP via Getty Images“I was shocked she didn’t win, because I think she would be a good president.”In the same interview, Jill also defended Joe Biden’s decision to go back on his word and pardon their son Hunter, saying he had no choice.“The process was not fair to Hunter,” she told “Today.” “The current president won, and the Justice Department changed. It became political.”“Trump said, ‘I want Hunter Biden to go to jail.’ We could not let our son go to jail on that charge for a gun that he bought and had for 11 days. We could not let him.”

Jill Biden's Surprising Reaction to Kamala Harris' Stunning Defeat

Jill Biden's Surprising Reaction to Kamala Harris' Stunning Defeat

WASHINGTON — Former first lady Jill Biden’s 2024 election revision tour kicked into full swing on Sunday when she insisted she fully supported Kamala Harris’ White House run and thought she would win.Harris had griped that the Biden White House often hung her out to dry when it came to fending off GOP attacks, and accused the 46th president of harping on a supposed slight against him to donors just before she took the debate stage against President Trump. But Jill insisted the Bidens went full tilt for her.Jill Biden claims she was “shocked” when Kamala Harris lost to President Trump in the 2024 election. CBS Sunday Morning“Oh, all out,” Jill told interviewer Rita Braver on CBS News “Sunday Morning” about her efforts to get Harris elected. “I was out on the trail, I think every single day. I traveled the entire country.”“[On] election night, I was certain she was going to win,” Jill went on. “The excitement for her and the crowds and, I mean, how people rallied around her, and I truly felt that she was going to win.”“I was shocked she didn’t win, because I think she would be a good president.”The former first lady added that “I went to bed” on Election Night and “I just, I couldn’t believe that she had lost.”Kamala Harris speaks at a moderated conversation with former Trump administration national security official Olivia Troye and former Republican voter Amanda Stratton on July 17, 2024 in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Getty ImagesWhile Jill didn’t directly address Harris’ public gripes, the former first lady was adamant that she and her husband were fully behind the then-veep in 2024.Harris didn’t feel the same way.“When Fox News attacked me on everything from my laugh, to my tone of voice, to whom I’d dated in my 20s, or claimed I was a ‘DEI hire,’ the White House rarely pushed back with my actual résumé: two terms elected D.A., top cop in the second-largest department of justice in the United States, senator representing one in eight Americans,” Harris lamented in her book, “107 Days.”Harris has griped that the Biden White House often hung her out to dry when it came to fending off GOP attacks Paul MartinkaHarris also groused about a pre-debate call she got from Joe, who was trying to ensure she wasn’t badmouthing him to donors. “My head had to be right. I had to be completely in the game,” the former veep wrote in her tome. “I just couldn’t understand why he would call me, right now, and make it all about himself.”In her book, she also reflected that the 46th president’s decision to seek another term was “recklessness.” After the election, Joe had caused a stir on social media for being all smiles despite Harris’ defeat.President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, left, and first lady Jill Biden appear on stage on the first night of the Democratic National Convention at the United Center in Chicago, Ill., on Monday, August 19, 2024. CQ-Roll Call, Inc via Getty ImagesHarris, considered a top contender for the 2028 Democratic nomination, became the party’s first nominee in 20 years to lose the popular vote, while Trump received 326 Electoral College votes, the most by any GOP nominee since George H.W. Bush in 1988.In the aftermath of the Democrats’ defeat, which came despite Harris raising $1 billion in the six weeks after the 46th president ended his bid for a second term on July 21, 2024, sources told The Post that “people didn’t connect” with the former senator and state attorney general of California.“She was a s–t candidate and Trump made her look worse than Hillary Clinton,” one source said at the time, adding that Joe Biden “got pushed out for an empty pantsuit. At least Biden beat Trump and Hillary Clinton had more balls than either of them.”Former President Joe Biden speaks to the South Carolina Democratic Party, Feb. 27, 2026, in Columbia, S.C. AP Photo/Matt KelleyHarris and Jill Biden have had an up-and-down relationship dating back to the 2020 Democratic primary campaign, during which Harris attacked Joe Biden over his past opposition to school desegregation busing.“With what he cares about, what he fights for, what he’s committed to, you get up there and call him a racist without basis?” Jill Biden told supporters on a conference call. “Go f–k yourself.”After Joe Biden secured the Democratic nomination, Jill reportedly came out strongly against choosing Harris as his running mate, complaining: “There are millions of people in the United States. Why do we have to choose the one who attacked Joe?”

Beirut on Edge: Why Thousands Are Fleeing Their Homes

Beirut on Edge: Why Thousands Are Fleeing Their Homes

Situata në Liban po përshkallëzohet sërish, ndërsa mijëra banorë të periferisë jugore të Bejrutit po largohen nga shtëpitë e tyre pas njoftimit të qeverisë izraelite se ushtria do të kryejë sulme të reja në zonën e njohur si Dahiyeh, e cila konsiderohet bastioni më i rëndësishëm i Hezbollahut në kryeqytetin libanez.Menjëherë pas deklaratës së përbashkët të kryeministrit izraelit Benjamin Netanyahu dhe ministrit të Mbrojtjes Israel Katz, shumë familje nisën të bëjnë gati sendet më të nevojshme dhe të largohen nga lagjet e rrezikuara. Rrugët që të çojnë jashtë zonës u mbushën me automjete, duke krijuar trafik të rënduar dhe skena paniku mes popullsisë civile.Korrespondentët në terren raportojnë se banorët po përballen me vështirësi të mëdha për të gjetur strehim, pasi shumë qendra të ngritura nga autoritetet janë tashmë të mbipopulluara.Një pjesë e familjeve po kalojnë orë të tëra në makina, duke pritur zhvillimet e ardhshme dhe duke mos ditur nëse do të mund të kthehen së shpejti në shtëpitë e tyre.Frika për një valë të re bombardimesh ka rikthyer kujtime të dhimbshme të konflikteve të mëparshme që kanë goditur Libanin.Ministri izraelit i Mbrojtjes deklaroi se nuk do të ketë qetësi në Bejrut, për sa kohë që sulmet e Hezbollahut ndaj veriut të Izraelit vazhdojnë. Sipas tij, Izraeli synon të largojë kërcënimet ndaj qytetarëve izraelitë dhe të krijojë një zonë sigurie në rajonin e lumit Litani në jug të Libanit. Kjo deklaratë konsiderohet nga ekspertët si një sinjal se Izraeli po përgatitet për një prani më të gjatë ushtarake në pjesë të territorit libanez, nëse situata nuk ndryshon.Tensionet u rritën edhe më shumë pasi ushtria izraelite mori kontrollin e Kalasë së Beaufortit, një pikë historike dhe strategjike në jug të Libanit. Kjo kala ishte përdorur nga Izraeli edhe gjatë periudhës së okupimit të jugut të Libanit para vitit 2000 dhe ka një rëndësi të veçantë ushtarake, për shkak të pozicionit të saj dominues mbi zonën përreth.Kryeministri Netanyahu e cilësoi marrjen e saj si një fazë të re dhe të rëndësishme të operacionit kundër Hezbollahut, duke premtuar zgjerimin e kontrollit në territore, që më parë konsideroheshin nën ndikimin e organizatës libaneze.Në të njëjtën kohë, Shtetet e Bashkuara po përpiqen të shmangin një përshkallëzim edhe më të madh të konfliktit. Sipas burimeve diplomatike, Uashingtoni ka propozuar një plan për uljen e tensioneve që parashikon ndërprerjen e sulmeve të Hezbollahut ndaj Izraelit në këmbim të ndalimit të zgjerimit të operacioneve ushtarake izraelite në Bejrut.Sekretari Amerikan i Shtetit Marco Rubio ka zhvilluar bisedime të ndara me presidentin libanez Joseph Aoun dhe kryeministrin izraelit Benjamin Netanyahu, duke kërkuar krijimin e kushteve për një armëpushim më të qëndrueshëm.Megjithatë, perspektivat për një zgjidhje të shpejtë mbeten të paqarta. Të dyja palët vazhdojnë të akuzojnë njëra-tjetrën për shkelje të armëpushimeve dhe marrëveshjeve të mëparshme. Në terren, luftimet dhe sulmet vazhdojnë të shkaktojnë viktima dhe dëme të konsiderueshme materiale.Autoritetet libaneze raportojnë mijëra të vrarë dhe të plagosur që nga fillimi i përshkallëzimit të fundit, ndërsa numri i të zhvendosurve ka kaluar shifrën e një milion personave.

Little Big Town’s Kimberly Schlapman has opened up about caring for her mom, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. “It’s 24-hour care,” Schlapman, 56, told USA Today in an interview published on Saturday, May 30, of the experience she’s undertaken since her 78-year-old mother Barbara’s diagnosis was presented about 20 years ago. “When she was diagnosed, we didn’t understand what her care would mean,” she continued. “We didn’t know enough about the disease to know where we were headed.” Schlapman, who works with her family as well as hired help to care for Barbara, recalled the day in 2005 when Barbara’s hand tremor led to a doctor informing her that she may have Parkinson’s disease, a movement disorder of the nervous system that worsens over time according to the Mayo Clinic. “I was like, what? What? Because no one in our family, to our knowledge, has had Parkinson’s before,” Schlapman detailed, before adding that once the suspicion evolved into a diagnosis, the family did not understand what care for Barbara would look like. Feeling the need to “be in multiple places at once,” Schlapman, who shares two daughters, Daisy, 18, and Dolly, 9, with husband Stephen, told the outlet that she relishes the responsibility to provide care for her loved ones. “I love being a mama. I also know what my mama has meant to me in my life. Now I get an opportunity to care for her. That’s incredibly important to me,”  Schlapman said. “I also have a job where people rely on me.” Check our latest news in Google News Check our latest news in Apple News Schlapman, who is also an avid cook, spoke wider about the need for more people to openly discuss the realities of living with Parkinson’s disease. “There is no shame in this disease,” Schlapman said. “And there are so many of us out there living with it that we need each other and we need to talk about it. And the more we talk about it, the better off our loved ones are going to be because their care is going to be better and people are going to understand it more.” Schlapman also noted that she recently moved closer to her mom to ensure she’s an active member of Barbara’s support team. “I just wouldn’t have it any other way,” she told the outlet. “We’re very, very involved in her care and with her doctors, and there’s one of us at every appointment she has.” Exclusives you can't get anywhere else We know you want Us, because you've made it this far.

Noah Brown's Heartfelt Last Words to Brother Matt Before Tragic Loss

Noah Brown's Heartfelt Last Words to Brother Matt Before Tragic Loss

Noah Brown has detailed the events leading up to the day his brother Matt Brown died. “I actually saw him the day before [Matt went missing], just in one of those, like, driving by, wave-type situations,” Noah exclusively told Us Weekly on Sunday, May 31. “I wish I had more time when I drove past. It was stopped, but … it is what it is.” Matt, who starred in the reality TV series Alaskan Bush People alongside Noah and the wider Brown family, was found dead at the age of 43. Local authorities confirmed his body had been recovered from the Okanogan River in Washington state on Saturday, May 30. Noah also detailed his final conversation with Matt to Us, revealing that it took place “probably two or three weeks” prior to Matt’s death. “I ran into him in the grocery store [and] the last thing I said to him was, ‘Okay, love you more, man,’ which was our thing,” Noah said. “You never know when the last time you’re going to see someone is, so [our family] always [says] how you feel right before you say goodbye, because it could be the last thing. Then that was it.” Noah also touched on his relationship with Matt during his interview with Us, sharing that the pair “were good” despite keeping “a distance” amid their large family dynamic. “In the later years, I realized it was best to just kind of let him do his own thing,” Noah said. “We never really had that kind of relationship where it was like a fight or anything. We were good, we just kept our distance. The stress of a large family gets to some people, and it’s just one of those things. Just let’s let him live his life.” Noah continued, “He and I were good and I’m very, very thankful for that. I do wish, though, that there could have been more, but in the end, that’s kind of always how it is. You always wish that you could have done more, no matter how much it was that you were doing.” The Discovery Channel docudrama-style series followed Billy Brown and Ami Brown’s survival in Alaska’s remote wilderness before charting life in Washington state with their seven children: Matt, Noah, Joshua “Bam Bam” Brown, Bear Brown, Gabe Brown, Bird Brown and Rain Brown. Bear confirmed Matt’s death via TikTok on Saturday, revealing that Noah was with a group of private citizens who recovered his oldest brother’s remains. Noah detailed the group’s efforts during his conversation with Us. “Myself and the rest of the people that were looking hauled [a] skiff up further on the shore, and that’s where it was … when the coroner came,” Noah said. “Right now, all I can say is that he was lost in the river. He was lost in the river and we found him.” Check our latest news in Google News Check our latest news in Apple News The Brown family shared a statement addressing Matt’s death with Us on Sunday. “It is with profound sadness and broken hearts that we share the loss of our beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend, Matthew Brown,” the statement read. “To millions of viewers, Matt was known as one of the original stars of Alaskan Bush People. To us, he was so much more.” The statement continued, “Matt was intelligent, curious, creative, and endlessly fascinated by the world around him. He was a gifted outdoorsman who felt most at home on the water, in the wilderness, or sharing what he had learned with others. He was an accomplished fisherman, an experienced boatman, and served as the radar operator on our family’s vessels. He loved adventure and never stopped exploring new ideas.” If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is available.

Vetëm në banesën e Ervis Doçit, i njohur si “Visi i Pojës”, u gjetën rreth 3 milionë euro. Operacioni çoi në arrestimin e 20 personave, 14 në Shqipëri dhe 6 jashtë vendit, ndërsa lista e plotë e urdhër-arresteve përfshinte emra si Arben Ndoka, Arian Tuku, Ilia Ndoka, Samuel Ndoka, Vinçens Tuku, Ervis Martinaj, Jozi Kraja, Astrit Avdyli, Aldo Avdyli, Miri Bruli, Naim Stafuka, Emiljano Shullazi, Blerim Abazi, Elvis Ndreca, Oltion Zefi, Armando Ndreca, Kasandër Noga, Elson Reçi, Besian Xhixha, Enver Diva, Fatmir Troplini, Gjergji Cukali, Kristos Teta, Denis Meta, Marklen Haka, Leonard Duka, Fatmir Hyseni, Durim Bami dhe dhjetëra persona të tjerë të konsideruar nga SPAK pjesë e rrjeteve më të fuqishme kriminale që vepronin në Shqipëri dhe jashtë saj.
