SCANDAL

Më datë 2 gusht, bëhet me dije se drejtuesi i ri i Departamentit të Teknologjisë dhe Informacionit në Policinë e Shtetit ka urdhëruar kalimin e të dhënave të sistemit TIMS në hartdisk të jashtëm.

Po atë ditë, mësohet se një punonjës i Policisë së Shtetit, që ka rënë në gjurmët e këtij akti, ka njoftuar eprorin e tij, i cili ka urdhëruar menjëherë bllokimin e të gjithë eksportimit të të dhënave. Por drejtuesi i ri, sipas të dhënave që janë bërë publike nga reagimet e brendshme që kanë ndodhur përgjatë asaj dite në Policinë e Shtetit, ua ka kërkuar bashkëpunëtorëve të tij të përjashtojnë drejtuesin nga çdo veprim në kompjuterët e tyre.

The incident (and this is expected to be confirmed by the Prosecutor's Office) has been simmering for three days within the State Police, where it has been emphasized that Muhamet Rrumbullaku, the chief police officer of the country, has actually been made aware of the scandal. The scandal was brought out on August 5, in the afternoon, it was released to the media in the form of an email sent by a police officer aware of the act to the police chiefs.

The informative and detailed email with all the concrete actions of the head of the Police and the people who supported him was distributed on all social networks, but without being able to reach the Prosecutor's Office of Tirana, let alone SPAK.
