"I don't know, I don't remember", the statements of the witness 'without memory'; what did Balla say for 4 hours in the GJKKO?

What happened today?
A tense session was held at the Special Court for the "Partizani" file, where the leader of the SP parliamentary group, Taulant Balla, appeared as an accuser and witness.
The hearing was dominated by repeated questions and interventions by the trial panel, with a focus on how the evidence was obtained and the basis for the indictment.
context
Balla is a prosecutor in the case involving Jamarbër Malltezi and DP leader Sali Berisha, for the privatization and development of the "Partizani" complex.
He claims that this is a process with elements of corruption, favoritism, and illegal enrichment, while the defense opposes this by requesting concrete evidence and documentation.
Balla's Doubt in Evidence
During the hearing, a repeated contrast was observed in his answers: on the one hand, he emphasized that the report was based on materials and documents collected by him, while on the other hand, he often declared a lack of memory or uncertainty about specific details.
"I don't remember, it was 6 years ago, maybe," Balla said when asked about a letter from the Ministry of Defense.
In some cases he also stated that he "didn't remember" how the documents were filed or their content, adding that he had to verify them in the report.
Regarding the submission of the report, Balla initially said that it was submitted by hand to the prosecutor's office, while later adding that it could have been filed by Assembly employees.
Questions about documents and legal basis
The defense continued with detailed questions on the existence of documents for expropriations, state agreements and property valuation. Balla stated that he had received some of the references from public sources and that, according to him, the property had been expropriated.
He added that the value of the privatization seemed ridiculous to him, estimating that it could be "maybe 10 times higher," adding that he was not an expert in economic evaluations.
Klodian Skënderaj: You said that I filed the report as a member of parliament and a citizen. To your knowledge, did you base the report you signed on supporting documentation? Did you attach any documents?
Balla: I have attached what I had available.
Skënderaj: How did you secure them?
Balla: Some through official channels, some from citizens. There are three sources: the media, citizens, and the MP's special line through letters.
Skënderaj: As an MP, have you received any letter from the Ministry of Interior that you have attached to the report? Is this the letter?
Balla: I don't remember, it was 6 years ago, maybe yes!
Skënderaj: How was the report filed with the prosecutor's office?
Balla: Me sa mbaj mend është depozituar dorazi.
...
Mëngjesi: Na refero disa fakte që ke hetuar vetë, apo i ke parë nga dokumentacioni?
Balla: S’kemi të bëjmë me rast tipik të korrupsionit dhe fshehjes së pasurisë. Bëhet fjalë për një pronë të Ministrisë së Mbrotjes që privarizohet, kthehet prona, krijohet kompani, ndërtohet…. Faktet janë në nenet e Kodit Penal, mbi të cilat mbështetet arsyetimi im.
Mëngjesi: Një fakt a dokument, ku e bazon korrupsionin?
Balla: E mendoj kështu!
Ndërhyrjet e gjykatës
Gjatë seancës, trupi gjykues ndërhyri disa herë për të ruajtur rendin procedural, duke i kujtuar dëshmitarit rolin e tij në proces.
“Mbani vendin tuaj, jeni thjesht dëshmitar. Nuk lejohen komentet,” u shpreh gjykata në një moment të seancës.
Skënderaj: Mbani mend që jeni shprehur se pronarët janë kompensuar nga Italia fashiste dhe se kjo tokë është blerë nga Shefqet Vërlaci dhe Jako Mane?
Balla: I qëndroj asaj që kam thënë në kallëzim!
Balla: Vazhdoni!
Elsa Ulliri: Ndaloni komentet, e vendos gjykata kur vazhdon ose jo.
Balla: Tregohuni e drejtë, edhe këta bënë tërë kohën komente.
Përballja Balla-Malltezi
Seanca është shoqëruar me një përballje të drejtpërdrejtë me Jamarbër Malltezin, i cili e ka vënë dëshmitarin përballë një sërë pyetjesh mbi mënyrën e sigurimit të provave dhe njohjen e dokumenteve të çështjes.
Malltezi e ka pyetur Ballën mbi bazën e provave, afatet e procedurave dhe njohjen e dokumenteve, duke e sfiduar disa herë për saktësinë e deklarimeve të tij. Por, Balla ka këmbëngulur se kallëzimi është bërë në interes publik dhe si pjesë e detyrës së tij si qytetar dhe përfaqësues politik.
Nga ana tjetër, Malltezi e ka vijuar ballafaqimin me pyetje të detajuara mbi kronologjinë e ngjarjeve dhe dokumentacionin, çka e ka vendosur Ballën dëshmitarin në vështirësi për sqarime të plota mbi disa elemente të dosjes.
Malltezi: Një pjese e këtyre të dhënave janë të dhëna personale? Si janë marrë provat?
Balla: U jam drejtuar institucioneve në lidhje me procedurat që janë ndjekur, një pjesë kanë qenë edhe nëpërmjet qytetarëve.
Malltezi: A e dini kush është “Laë Farm Firm”?
Balla: Mund ta kem përdorur për konsulencë ligjore.
Malltezi: E keni angazhuar ju Alket Hysenin?
Balla: Ka qenë deputet. Nuk e kam angazhuar si zyrë avokatie, por mund të jem konsultuar me të.
Malltezi: Deputeti mund të ushtrojë aktivitet privat? Alket Hyseni?
Balla: Nuk e di.
Malltezi: Nga kush iu dha akses studios “H&A Laë”?
Balla: Nuk e di.
...
Throughout the hearing, the defense insisted on requesting concrete documents and verifiable facts, while Balla relied mainly on a combination of deposited materials, public sources, and doubts raised by himself.
