"I did not escape", Elvis Pupa reacts after accusations of dope

Famous comedian Elvis Pupa has reacted after Australian media reported he was accused of drug cultivation.

He states that he has not escaped, but has been in Tirana for more than a month.

"I am forced to react to some untrue and malicious news that is circulating in the media, according to which I have allegedly 'escaped' and 'am wanted'. I want to make it very clear: for more than a month I have been in Tirana, where I am carrying out regular professional engagements, planned in Albania and wider Europe. Any attempt to present this situation differently is a pure manipulation of information, a deliberate misinterpretation that aims to make news where there is nothing extraordinary. As for my wife, Belina, she continues her professional activity and is completely free. The entire situation that is currently being addressed is part of a legal process that is still developing, and as she herself has stated, it is up to justice to have the last word. Unfortunately, we have seen a serious misuse of the news, for the purpose of sensationalism and clicks, where distortion has taken the place of the truth. Our lives are public, but this does not give anyone the right to abuse "with the dignity of people. Life continues normally, with our daily work and responsibilities. We will face every situation with calm, transparency and respect for the truth. Thank you for the understanding and support that many of you have shown us ," Pupa said in a statement.

Australian media reports that Elvis Pupa, along with his wife Belina Pupa, was found to be cultivating cannabis and, according to them, had a marijuana house in Adelaide, where they have lived for many years.
