Rama's minister's pressure on the journalist, Zhupa: Denaj to stop the

The chairperson of the Parliamentary Committee for Education and Public Information Media, deputy Ina Zhupa, has reacted after journalist Rudina Muça's denunciation of Anila Denaj, Minister of Agriculture, for the pressure that the latter has put on the journalist's sister for dismissal.

Today, Muça denounced the case on social networks and accused Dendaj of trying to silence her for the allegations that the journalist made in one of her programs regarding the spending of 1.7 million euros for the brucellosis vaccine.

Zhupa says that the acts of Denaj clearly show what was written in the EU reports about the regression that Albania has made in relation to media freedom.

Zhupa's post:

Anila Denaj to stop the pressure on the journalist of Top Channel, Rudina Muca by firing her sister and to account for the fact that the ministry she leads has not carried out the vaccine against Brucellosis even though this vaccine cost 1.7 million euros.

Courageous and professional denunciation in the service of the public interest should cause the justice bodies to investigate.

Minister Denaj, instead of threatening the journalist's family members with the purpose of intimidation and pressure to not reveal the truth, should take responsibility for the department she leads.

 Agriculture is actually one of the most failed sectors of this government where they are specialized in the disappearance of European and Albanian funds.

These acts clearly indicate the regression shown by the European Union in relation to the freedom of the media and that governmental affairs are not answered by investigation of the guilty but by threats and intimidation of whistleblowers.
