Greek media: How Belinda Balluku changed from a cleaner to the 'minister of tenders'

The Greek media NewsBomb has dedicated an article to Deputy Prime Minister Belinda Balluku, where it refers to her close ties with Ervis Berberi, the head of ARRSH, who has already been arrested, as well as the debt of the "Aktor" company.

On March 13, SPAK, the anti-corruption court, arrested Ervis Berberi, the head of the Albanian Road Authority and one of the most trusted associates of the Minister of Infrastructure and Energy and Deputy Prime Minister, Belinda Baluku.

The Greek media raises questions about how Balluku, from once a cleaner in Greece, turned into the deputy prime minister of Rama, and the so-called 'minister of tenders' at the time she headed the Ministry of Infrastructure.

ARTICLE:

The accusations were related to construction projects and luxury competitions, which were won by Edi Rama's chosen ones. According to the Albanian media, after a police raid, SPAK, the Anti-Corruption Court, arrested Ervis Berber, the head of the Albanian Road Authority.

The police arrested him together with two business associates (Valter Begaj & Ervis Lamaj) in his apartment, business associates (Valter Begaj & Ervis Lamaj) where large sums of money and paintings worth hundreds of thousands of euros were seized.

Ervis Berberi was Minister Baluku's right-hand man and was the one who was photographed next to her at all inspections and inaugurations of major road projects. According to SPAK, Valter Begaj, owner of the NET - GROUP company, won 6 public tenders, the money from which he transferred through transactions to the DAAM company. The benefit seems to be 2.7 million euros.

NET-GROUP won these competitions, the money was transferred through transactions to the DAAM company. These actions have raised suspicions of money laundering activities. The SPAK investigation is reported to have started in recent weeks, focusing on the sale of DAAM. DAAM was bought by Burberry at a very low price, sold multiple times, while ownership and management changed several times between Buli, Begaj and Lamaj. There are suspicions of a fake transfer to avoid a conflict of interest as Berber was set to be appointed as an adviser to the Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy.

The entire scandal above has caused tectonic shaking in Albania's political scene.

Many questions are raised by the rise of the beautiful and deputy prime minister Belinda Balluku, who before her new career worked in Greece as a domestic helper.

Practically, a domestic helper became the vice president of the Albanian government and the minister of infrastructure and therefore commands the public affairs of the neighboring country.

Now let's go to the story box:

There is a judgment that the construction company Aktor has won from a French court, against the Albanian state, in the amount of 50 million euros, for which the Ministry of Justice and Foreign Affairs have not given the green light to execute it.

And somewhere here Balluku is included, whose partner was arrested for money laundering, while she had asked the bosses (the seniors of the construction company) to speed up the construction of the project, when they did, Balluku did not pay the amounts.

In other words, the actress did the work, went to court, won 50 million euros, and Edi Rama's chosen one whistles indifferently... And here are the hot questions:

Who and why does not give the green light to Mr. Exarchou of the Actor to execute?

What games are being played in the diplomatic background that prevent the payment of sums to a Greek company that it has legally won?

Who does the Albanian regime cover?

What does Athena know about these cases and what will she do? Will it continue to hiss indifferently?
