Deputy Prime Minister for Good Governance, Arben Fetai, who publicly accused Judge Ilir Rexhepi of taking money to rule in favor of Zijadin Sela's wing in the court case over the Alliance for Albanians' stamps, says his accusation is based on "information that reached the party," the "Alsat".

Fetai, who claimed that the decision was "written in party cabinets, not in court," nevertheless failed to report such a crime to the competent authorities, despite having such a duty.

"We have been informed in the party that the judge in question received money from the other side to make the same decision as the first one regarding the case of ownership of the seals of the Alliance for Albanians party. We have not filed an appeal so far, as we are considering the next steps regarding this case within the party," says Fetai.

But the prosecution will react after receiving a complaint, the Public Prosecutor's Office told "Alsat", adding that they are already working on collecting evidence that should establish the crime that Fetai, in his position as Deputy Prime Minister, claims to have occurred.

"The Tetovo Prosecutor's Office is following the information. Until indications leading to a criminal act are established, the prosecutor's office will act in accordance with the law," the Public Prosecutor's Office said.

A few days ago, Fetai, in a statement to the newspaper "Lime", directly accused the judge of receiving money for this decision.

"There are certain judges who receive money from parties and write decisions that are not even written in court, but are written, in this case, in the offices of political parties," Fetai said.

Judge Ilir Rexhepi told the television station that he had presented all the arguments he had in the court decision, and he rejected Fetai's accusations as untrue and called them slander. He said that he expects the Deputy Prime Minister's statements, which he described as reckless, to be publicly condemned by both the Judicial Council and the Judges' Association.
