Democratic leader Sali Berisha reacted today by denying reports that his daughter, Argita Malltezi, is the owner of 63 hectares of land in Divjaka.
In a post on his Facebook, Berisha writes that it is all a slander and a big lie.
He adds that Argita and his family have never owned a single square meter of land in Divjaka, adding that they have not taken the land from anyone.
“Regarding the statement made by a paid slanderer yesterday at the protest, that “Argita Berisha and the family of Prime Minister Berisha have taken 63 hectares of land from me in Divjaka”, I declare that: this is a complete lie and shameful slander.
“Argita Berisha and the family of former Prime Minister Berisha do not have and have never had a single square meter of land in Divjaka and have never taken a single square meter of land from anyone,” Berisha writes.
Sali Berisha’s reaction:
When causes are soaked with government slander
Regarding the statement made by a paid slanderer at yesterday’s protest, that “Argita Berisha and the family of Prime Minister Berisha have taken 63 hectares of land from me in Divjaka”, I declare that: this is a complete lie and shameful slander.
Argita Berisha and the family of former Prime Minister Berisha do not and have never had a single square meter of land in Divjaka and have never taken a single square meter of land from anyone.
Sali Berisha and his family have been investigated for 35 years by Edi Rama’s militants and in the end it turned out that they have never benefited from any public money, any tender, or any cm2 of land, public or private, belonging to anyone else.
After they failed with their slanders against my interests and those of my family in the towers of Tirana, on the day when Edi Rama had to answer for the theft of public property proven with the documents of the Zig-Zag hotel case, since he could not answer, he chose slander.
The smearing of public causes with obvious lies is a deliberate means of asphyxiating the cause and oxygenating this government that has stolen the public and private property of Albanians and seeks to hide behind its slander.
In conclusion, Sali Berisha strongly supports the protest of youth and citizens, but of course not the slanders and slanderers that harm its cause.
