DP issues names; who are the two former police leaders linked to crime and engaged in the socialist campaign

The Democratic Party, which claims election manipulation, has indicated the names, which according to it, are implicated in this scheme. The legal representative, Ivi Kaso, says that the leader of the campaign in Gjirokastra, Arianit Arapi, has connections with Shullazi's gang. According to Kasos, Arapi, who was also the police chief, was investigated for drugs.
He adds that Arapi in cooperation with Andrea Çaushi, cousin of former Interior Minister Saimir Tahiri have allowed the cultivation of narcotic plants in the village of Kalivaç in Tepelena. Also according to PD, Arapi in cooperation with the director of Përmet police Ermir Gërxhani have allowed the cultivation of narcotic plants in this city.
Kaso said that another person with a criminal record who was involved in the campaign of the socialist candidate Bledi Çuçi is the brother of the chairman of the Socialist Party in Tepelena, Dino Selimi. Sokol Feruni and Andi Shkurta are two other names denounced by Ivi Kaso, as being investigated for drugs and engaged in the socialist campaign in Gjirokastra.
"SP in Gjirokastra region had political leader Bledar Çuçi, ranked fourth in the multi-name list. The director of the Campaign was citizen Arianit Arapi, the former Chief of Police, investigated for drug links and the infamous Shullazi gang. The connection between Çuçi and Arap dates back to 2017, when Çuçi ran as a deputy for the Gjirokastra district and Arapi held the position of director of the Gjirokastra district police, being directly involved in the manipulation of votes.
According to the official information of SHISH and the State Police, this citizen in cooperation with Andrea Çaushi, cousin of the former Minister of Interior Saimir Tahiri have allowed the cultivation of narcotic plants in the village of Kalivaç of Tepelena, and have even prevented the police forces from monitoring this area. This citizen together with persons with serious criminal records from Fushë-Kruja, connected with the Shullazi gang, as well as with the cooperation of the Përmet Police Director Ermir Gërxhani have allowed the cultivation of narcotic plants in Përmet.
Another person with criminal records is the brother of the chairman of SP Tepelena, Dino Selimi, who has served as a transporter for narcotics from the mountainous areas of Tepelena and the coastal city of Vlora. Sokol Feruni is another person with terrible criminal records for narcotics cultivation who is directly involved in Bledar Çuçi's campaign.
This citizen in cooperation with his brother and citizen Andi Shkurta are known for their criminal connections. Due to the above connections these citizens have implemented a criminal vote buying scheme. As we know at the time when Tahiri was the Minister of Interior, the Serious Crimes Prosecutors sent to court some of the members of the group, but Arianit Arapi and Ermir Grexhani, who were the leaders of the Gjirokastra and Përmet police, escaped. In February 2021, Arianit Arapi, after leaving the State Police due to connections with criminal elements, was appointed advisor to the Minister of Interior and leader of the SP Campaign in Gjirokastra " , said the PD representative.
